Are you worried that your child’s emotions or behaviors are negatively impacting their learning?

Emotional or behavioral problems can make it harder for your child to learn. Our highly skilled educational therapists are experts in understanding how emotional and behavioral problems can complicate children’s literacy challenges, and they can help children work through those literacy challenges using our online therapy program. Our therapists understand how emotions tie into learning challenges as shown in this illustration of what we refer to as the Vortex of Dyslexia.

This free emotional and behavioral screener consists of questions organized in three sections: Organizing & Remembering, Focusing & Flexibility, and Regulating. Your child does not need to be present for this test.
