There are a multitude of reasons that make it worthwhile to have a neuropsychological evaluation. First of all, Learning Disabilities can occur in close to half of all individuals who have ADHD. If you or your child has not had any testing, these Learning Disabilities can go undetected and untreated. Treating this individual with only medication would be treating only half of the problem. Untreated Learning Disabilities in children can result in low academic performance, lack of motivation, low self-esteem and can sometimes lead to more severe problems such as depression and anxiety.
