How Our Psychologists Can Help
By combining expert pediatric psychology services with a collaborative and individualized approach, The Morris Center empowers children with learning differences to thrive and reach their full potential.
1. Understanding Each Individual
Expert Assessment
We conduct thorough psychoeducational evaluations to identify learning difficulties, their underlying causes, and any co-occurring challenges. Our evaluations may involve standardized tests, interviews, and observations. This empowers us to create a personalized roadmap for success.
Differential Diagnosis
Our psychologists conduct comprehensive assessments to help distinguish between different conditions that may share similar symptoms. By carefully evaluating behavioral, emotional, and cognitive patterns, we can accurately identify underlying conditions such as ADHD, anxiety disorders, learning difficulties, or other neurodevelopmental disorders.
This thorough diagnostic process ensures the most appropriate treatment plan is developed, tailored to the individual’s unique needs, leading to more effective interventions and better outcomes.
2. Individualized Therapies
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Equipping clients with tools to manage negative emotions and self-doubt often associated with learning challenges.
Social-Emotional Support
“Helping individuals navigate challenges related to emotional regulation, self-esteem, and interpersonal relationships. Through therapeutic techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), social skills training, and emotional coping strategies, we help clients build resilience, improve emotional intelligence, and enhance their ability to manage stress, anxiety, and other emotional difficulties.
This support is especially valuable for individuals dealing with social anxiety, peer relationship difficulties, or those facing challenges in managing emotions in various settings like school or work.”
