What Is a Psychoeducational Assessment?

A psychoeducational assessment is a structured, evidence-based process that explores how a person thinks, learns, remembers, and processes information. These assessments can reveal learning disabilities, ADHD, executive functioning challenges, anxiety-related impacts on learning, and more.

Zhala uses these assessments to help clients understand their unique strengths and areas of difficulty—whether they’re students, professionals, or parents seeking support for their child.

Zhala’s Approach: Insightful, Respectful, Empowering

Zhala understands that no two brains are the same. Her approach to psychoeducational assessment is centered around curiosity, trust, and empowerment.

She creates a calm, supportive environment that reduces testing anxiety and encourages clients to feel safe and understood. Her work is rooted in the belief that knowledge is power—and a strong, clear diagnosis or cognitive profile can open the door to better accommodations, treatment plans, and emotional well-being.
