Whole Mind Psychological Services provides personalized psychological, educational, assessment, counseling, and support services for children, adolescents, families, and schools in Sunnyvale and throughout Silicon Valley, helping families better understand learning, attention, developmental, emotional, and everyday challenges while providing clear, practical guidance for the next step.
Parents are often the first to notice when their child's experience doesn't match what they expected. Homework may take hours, school may become a source of frustration, organization may feel impossible, or a child who once enjoyed learning may begin withdrawing from it.
These changes can have many possible explanations. A child may be dealing with an unidentified learning difference, attention concerns, developmental differences, emotional stress, or several factors at once. Finding the right explanation can make it easier to decide what support should come next.
At Whole Mind, we take time to understand the individual circumstances behind a child's difficulties rather than reducing them to a single behavior or score.
There isn't one solution for every child. Our services cover several areas so families can access the type of professional support that best matches their concerns.
When questions arise about academic progress, learning differences, or cognitive development, assessment can provide useful information about how a child processes and approaches different types of tasks. Our psychoeducational evaluations provide a broader view of academic and cognitive functioning.
Some families already have a particular concern they want to investigate. Whole Mind provides ADHD testing, dyslexia testing, autism testing, and IQ testing based on the questions and circumstances surrounding each child.

Whole Mind also works with schools and districts that need additional psychological expertise. Our school psychologist staffing and district services can help educational teams address student needs and strengthen available support.
Sunnyvale is a diverse Silicon Valley community where families often balance demanding school environments, professional responsibilities, and busy schedules. When a child needs additional support, families benefit from guidance that recognizes their circumstances rather than offering generic solutions.
Whole Mind works with children and adolescents experiencing a wide range of learning, attention, developmental, emotional, and behavioral concerns. Services may include assessment, counseling, executive-function support, and educational services depending on the family's needs.
You don't have to identify the answer by yourself. A consultation gives you an opportunity to explain what you've observed and what questions you want answered. We can then discuss whether a focused assessment or broader evaluation may be appropriate.
Children can experience overlapping learning, attention, developmental, and emotional challenges. In these situations, considering the different factors together can provide a more useful understanding than focusing on only one symptom.
Yes. An existing evaluation can provide helpful background when determining what type of support may be appropriate next. Depending on the circumstances, families may explore counseling, executive function coaching, additional assessment, or educational recommendations.
When parent permission and appropriate authorization are provided, we can communicate relevant information and recommendations with educators and school teams. Whole Mind also offers services directly to educational organizations through school psychologist staffing and district support.
