Helping Students Reach Their Full Potential

Personalized psychoeducational evaluations and supportive services for children, families, and schools.

About Us

At Mindful Learning and Assessments (MLA), we believe every child deserves the right support to thrive—not just academically, but socially, emotionally, and physically. We partner with families and schools to provide clear, comprehensive, and actionable evaluations that lead to meaningful change.

Our team includes certified school psychologists, licensed clinical social workers, and experienced mental health professionals who bring a wide range of expertise to the families we serve. Together, we are committed to delivering professional, compassionate, and effective support that meets the needs of every child.

In addition to high-quality psychoeducational evaluations, MLA offers:

Parent Advocate Program – We walk side by side with families as they navigate the IEP and 504 process. From preparing for meetings to ensuring your child receives appropriate accommodations, our team helps you feel confident, supported, and empowered in every conversation with the school.
Nutrition & Wellness Support – We recognize that learning and behavior are influenced by more than classroom instruction. That’s why we have a licensed dietitian on staff who specializes in supporting neurodivergent children. Through practical strategies and personalized plans, we help families foster healthy eating habits that support focus, regulation, and overall well-being.

Our holistic approach means families receive not only answers through evaluation, but also ongoing guidance and resources to help children reach their full potential at home, at school, and beyond.
