Adult Learning Evaluation Center - FSU ALEC

Adult Learning Evaluation Center - FSU ALEC Providing psychoeducational evaluations for students (ADHD, Learning Disorders, other mental health, etc.) & ADHD Coaching (Individual and Group) services

Psychoeducational evaluations:

The evaluation includes a series of academic and cognitive processing assessments to determine patterns of strengths and weaknesses that help explain one’s academic performance, to determine the presence of a learning disability, and to provide appropriate recommendations. ADHD Evaluations:

The assessment evaluates for the presence of inattention, hyperactivity, or impulsivity that may be adversely affecting academic, occupational, or social functioning. It involves the completion of a variety of self-report measures, an extensive clinical interview, and a screening of cognitive abilities and educational skills. We also seek permission to send forms to parents, significant other/roommate/close friend, spouse, teacher, or employers (at your discretion) that ask them to rate you on common symptoms of ADHD. Other Mental Health Evaluations:

This assessment serves to determine the presence of other mental health conditions that may be adversely affecting academic, occupational, or social functioning, such as anxiety, depression, bipolar, autism, etc. The assessment includes a variety of self-report measures, an extensive clinical interview, and a screening of cognitive abilities and educational skills. ADHD Coaching:

Clients will commit to 8 individualized sessions with an ADHD Coach to achieve their goals by developing skills and strategies to compensate for areas of functioning affected by ADHD. We also offer an ADHD Coping Skills group in the fall and spring semesters.

Have you set up your academic accommodations for this semester? Contact FSU Office of Accessibility Services
Are you struggling and think you might need accommodations for the first time? ALEC can help you out with your documentation. Give us a call 850-644-3611!

Students with disabilities going off to college still have a right to receive reasonable accommodations. To start this process reach out to your school’s disability coordinator early to schedule a meeting. Be sure to bring documentation of your disability and previous accommodations to this meeting. After your accommodations are approved, you will then meet with professors to determine how they will be applied in their classroom.

The new 9-8-8 Crisis Lifeline is now live! If you or someone you know is struggling with thoughts of wanting to harm themself or others, you can now dial 9-8-8 for help.

Today is a historical day for su***de prevention and mental health in the U.S.! The National Su***de Prevention Lifeline, now known as the 988 Su***de & Crisis Lifeline, can be more easily reached by calling or texting 988, or chatting on 988lifeline.org.

988 serves as a universal entry point so that no matter where you live in the U.S., you can easily access 24/7 emotional support. You do not have to be suicidal to reach out. Our trained crisis counselors can help you through whatever mental health challenges you are experiencing.

We're so grateful to SAMHSA, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the Federal Communications Commission, and our other su***de prevention and mental health partners in the field for working together to get us here, and we look forward to growing and expanding our services and supports in the years to come.
