THE ASSESSMENT PROCESS INCLUDES, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO, TESTING FOR AUTISM, ADHD, INTELLECTUAL DISABILITIES, AND LEARNING DISORDERS. EVALUATIONS MAY INCLUDE INTELLECTUAL, ACHIEVEMENT, AND ADAPTIVE FUNCTIONING ASSESSMENTS, SPECIFIC DIAGNOSTIC ASSESSMENTS, AND FUNCTIONAL BEHAVIORAL ASSESSMENTS. TREATMENTS INCLUDE BEHAVIOR THERAPY FOR PROBLEM BEHAVIORS, SELF-CARE DEFICITS, MOOD/ANXIETY DISORDERS, AND ANGER MANAGEMENT, AS WELL AS SOCIAL SKILLS TRAINING AND FEEDING THERAPY. CONSULTATIVE SERVICES FOR PARENTS AND SCHOOLS ARE ALSO AVAILABLE. A PHYSICIAN'S REFERRAL IS REQUIRED TO BE TREATED BY EMERGE'S CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGISTS. REFERRING PEDIATRICIANS RECEIVE ASSESSMENT RESULTS, AND CAN RECEIVE ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION AS REQUESTED PERTAINING TO THERAPY. FAMILY AND TEACHER INPUT IS CRUCIAL TO DEVELOPING TREATMENT PLANS BASED UPON THE CHILD'S STRENGTHS AND NEEDS. OUR PSYCHOLOGISTS CAREFULLY DEVELOP TREATMENT PLANS THAT COINCIDE WITH BEHAVIORAL FUNCTIONS WHILE REMAINING PRACTICAL FOR CAREGIVERS TO IMPLEMENT. ONCE A TREATMENT PLAN IS FORMULATED, A FUNCTIONAL, ASSESSMENT-DRIVEN INTERVENTION MAY BE IMPLEMENTED WHILE CONTINUING TO COLLECT DATA AND MONITOR PROGRESS.

OUR CENTER PROVIDES ADDITIONAL VALUE BECAUSE WE SPECIFICALLY TREAT CHILDREN WITH DEVELOPMENTAL AND BEHAVIORAL DISORDERS AND THEIR FAMILIES.WHAT WE CAN PROVIDE TO A CHILD THAT OTHER PROGRAMS GENERALLY CANNOT IS THE BLENDING OF CHILD PSYCHOLOGY WITH OTHER DEVELOPMENTAL AND THERAPEUTIC SERVICES. IT IS OUR EXPERIENCE THAT CHILDREN WITH LANGUAGE AND DEVELOPMENTAL DELAYS ALSO FREQUENTLY HAVE BEHAVIORAL DIFFICULTIES STEMMING FROM THEIR INABILITY TO COMMUNICATE. THIS IS WHY THE EMERGE CENTER OFFERS PSYCHOLOGICAL EVALUATIONS, BEHAVIOR THERAPY, COUNSELING, AND CONSULTING SERVICES WHICH ALLOWS US TO "TREAT THE WHOLE CHILD" MORE COMPLETELY AND PROVIDE A TRUE CONTINUITY OF CARE HERE IN BATON ROUGE.
