At The Cognition Crew, we partner with families across Connecticut to provide comprehensive, independent evaluations and consultation services designed to promote clarity, collaboration, and student growth.
When questions arise about learning, attention, executive functioning, or academic progress, families deserve clear answers and practical next steps. Our evaluations are conducted by certified school psychologists with specialized training in both psychology and education. We focus not only on identifying areas of need, but on building a roadmap forward.
Whether you are exploring a psychoeducational evaluation or Neuropsychological evaluation in Connecticut, seeking an Independent Educational Evaluation (IEE), or preparing for a PPT meeting, our goal is to support informed and collaborative decision-making.

When and Where Evaluations Take Place
When and Where Evaluations Take Place
We understand that families have busy schedules. Evaluations are typically conducted after school hours — including evenings and weekends — unless otherwise arranged.
Testing sessions are held at an agreed-upon, appropriate location to ensure comfort, privacy, and optimal performance. We work collaboratively with families to schedule sessions in a way that minimizes disruption to the student’s school day whenever possible.
