College Accommodations Evaluations: Personalized Assessments to Support Academic Achievement

College Accommodations Evaluations

Whole Mind Psychological Services offers specialized psychoeducational evaluations, counseling support, and school psychologist services to help college students identify the learning, attention, and cognitive factors that influence their academic experience. Our college accommodations evaluations provide a clearer understanding of a student’s individual strengths, challenges, and the support strategies that can help them succeed in higher education.

A College Accommodations Evaluation can help identify:
Learning differences that may create challenges with reading, writing, studying, or test preparation
Attention and executive functioning concerns affecting focus, planning, and time management
Cognitive processing differences that impact how information is understood and retained
Academic barriers that may require individualized accommodations and support services
Personalized learning strategies that match the student’s unique abilities and goals

We work with students to understand their academic needs and provide comprehensive evaluation results that can support accommodation requests through college disability services. Our recommendations are designed to promote confidence, independence, and effective learning strategies throughout the college journey.

Every student has a unique way of processing information and approaching challenges. With the right understanding and resources, students can build stronger academic skills, manage demands more effectively, and create a successful path through higher education.

It was a pleasure working with Michelle. She was professional and diligent in meeting the needs of our schools. Michelle hit the road running and was instrumental in ensuring that our schools remained compliant with state and federal regulations. Her services are highly recommended, and I hope I get the chance to work with her in the future.

What sets Michelle apart is how she presents complex findings in a way that families truly understand. I’ve sat in meetings where parents arrived anxious and overwhelmed, and left feeling informed, reassured, and empowered. She has a rare ability to balance clinical depth with warmth and clarity.
