Chicago-based · Serving Illinois, Florida, and Ohio · In person or remote

The goal is not more data. It is a clearer explanation.

Data becomes useful only when it is interpreted in context.

How we work

  • Thorough

    Reviewing historical records and clinical data carefully before formulating conclusions.

  • Integrated

    Synthesizing multiple lines of evidence to understand the whole child, rather than interpreting scores in isolation.

  • Objective

    Grounding findings in data, history, direct observation, and independent clinical judgment.

  • Defensible

    Writing comprehensive, evidence-based reports built to inform high-stakes educational planning.

  • Human-centered

    Ensuring the child never becomes secondary to the data, the process, or the decision being made.

About the Founder

Every Child Deserves To Be Understood

Global Psychoeducational Solutions was founded on a simple belief: educational decisions should be based on a true understanding of the child.

Throughout my work as a school psychologist, I’ve seen how easily evaluations can become centered on scores, eligibility decisions, or paperwork. Yet behind every referral is a child whose strengths, challenges, and way of learning deserve to be understood with care.

I created GPS to offer evaluations that do more than determine whether a student qualifies for services. They should help families and school teams understand how a child learns, why they may be struggling, and what will best support their growth moving forward.

That philosophy guides every evaluation we complete.

When a child is truly understood, families feel more confident, school teams make better-informed decisions, and children are better positioned to receive the support they need.

Common questions

Common questions about psychoeducational evaluations

View all FAQs →
When is a psychoeducational evaluation the right fit?

A psychoeducational evaluation may be appropriate when there are concerns about learning, attention, executive functioning, academic performance, school progress, or accommodations.

What makes a GPS evaluation different?

GPS evaluations are designed to do more than list scores. Findings are interpreted together so the report explains the pattern behind the concern and supports meaningful educational planning.

Can an evaluation explain why my child is struggling?

Yes. A comprehensive evaluation can help clarify concerns related to learning disabilities, ADHD, executive functioning, processing speed, academic fluency, reading, writing, math, and broader school functioning.

How is this different from a neuropsychological evaluation?

A neuropsychological evaluation and a psychoeducational evaluation can both be helpful. When the primary questions are connected to learning, school performance, academic skills, attention, executive functioning, or accommodations, a psychoeducational evaluation is often the more school-focused option.

Can the report support IEP, 504, ACT, SAT, or college accommodations?

Evaluation findings may support school planning, IEP or 504 discussions, ACT or SAT accommodation requests, college accommodation documentation, and related educational supports when appropriate.

Do you work with schools and districts?

Yes. GPS provides school-based evaluation support, independent educational evaluations, overflow support, and consultation for school cases that require careful interpretation.

Are evaluations available in person or remotely?

GPS offers in-person and remote options depending on the referral question, location, and evaluation needs. GPS is Chicago-based and serves Illinois, Florida, and Ohio.
