Empowering children & teens through expert psychological evaluations, evidence-based therapy, and coaching in Lake Oswego, OR.

Partnering with families, schools, & specialists to help young people thrive. 💙

Psychological evaluations are often misunderstood. They’re not about finding a label—they’re about finding answers.

An evaluation offers a deep dive into how a child or teen thinks, learns, processes information, and navigates emotions. It’s a collaborative process designed to uncover strengths, identify areas of need, and rule out other concerns that might be impacting success at school or home.

What it won’t do? Tell you everything about your child in one snapshot. But it will equip you with valuable insights to advocate for the right academic support, accommodations, or resources when they need it most.

Clarity now can create a smoother, more confident path into the school year. 🎓

Every child and teen develops on their own timeline, but sometimes those nagging feelings that something isn’t quite right are worth exploring.

Maybe it’s persistent emotional outbursts, difficulty focusing, or constant academic struggles. While some phases do pass, others may signal a deeper challenge that needs attention.

A psychological evaluation doesn’t mean jumping to conclusions—it means understanding your child’s unique wiring so you can make informed choices moving forward.

With the right insight, families and schools can work together to provide targeted, meaningful support that helps kids feel more confident and understood as they grow. 🌱

We hear it all the time:

💬 “Do you take insurance?”
💬 “Can I just go through the school?”
💬 “Why does this cost more than other evaluations?”

And these are great questions. The truth is, you're not just paying for a report. You're investing in clarity, direction, and ongoing support. Our evaluations are:

✨ Led by licensed clinical psychologists
✨ Thorough, evidence-based, and tailored
✨ Designed to help you, your child’s school, and your care team actually use the information

Our reports are consistently praised by pediatricians, educators, and parents for being insightful, easy to understand, and truly helpful.

Summer is for rest… but also a great time to build life skills. 🌿

Kids thrive with a balance of freedom and structure. Helping with chores, practicing simple routines, or learning to manage a schedule can all foster confidence and emotional regulation.

Noticing your child struggling with transitions, motivation, or following directions? An evaluation can help you understand the “why” and guide next steps for support at home and school.

We’re here to help families find clarity that lasts long after summer ends.

Just because school is out doesn’t mean support should stop. ☀️

If your child faced challenges with reading, focus, or emotional regulation this year, continuing tutoring or structured learning through the summer can make a big difference.

Summer is also a valuable time to reflect on how your child learns and what supports might be needed heading into the next school year.

A psychoeducational evaluation can help uncover learning differences or attention-related challenges and offer a roadmap for success—at school and at home.

Let’s talk screen time. 📱

Summer brings more downtime—and with it, more battles over devices. You’re not alone if you're feeling frustrated, unsure, or just tired of saying “turn it off.”

Here’s our quick take:
✨ Balance > Perfection
✨ Connection first, boundaries second
✨ You’re doing better than you think

Try inviting your child to help set limits, swap one screen session for a walk, or build in device-free family moments.

Need help navigating this? We’ve got tools for that, too.

A few gentle reminders for parents as we step into summer 🌞:

✨ Your child doesn’t need a “perfect” summer filled with constant activities and enrichment. What they do need is connection, safety, and space to be themselves.

✨ It’s okay to let go of rigid routines and embrace slower mornings, more downtime, and spontaneous joy.

✨ And perhaps most importantly—your well-being matters too. Take time to rest, breathe, and be present when you can.

This season, let's prioritize presence over perfection. We’re here for you every step of the way.

You’ve noticed your child struggling in school. Maybe reading is extra hard. Maybe homework leads to daily tears. Or maybe you just have a gut feeling that something’s not clicking.

A psychoeducational evaluation can help. These evaluations assess how your child learns, processes information, and regulates attention—providing a full picture of their cognitive and academic strengths and needs.

They can also be the key to unlocking support at school, like an IEP or 504 plan. At Whole Child Collective, we take a compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming approach to every evaluation, ensuring each child feels seen, supported, and celebrated.

Summer is here—and with it, big changes in routine. Whether your child is graduating, starting a new camp, or just adjusting to the unstructured rhythm of the season, transitions can bring up big feelings.

These in-between moments are often when children need the most support. Keep connection at the center—simple strategies like countdowns to new events, previewing what’s coming, and validating feelings can go a long way in helping children feel secure and grounded.

🌟 Tip: Create a visual calendar together to help your child understand what to expect.
