Twenty Ways to Benefit from Your
School Psychologist

Name one thing that a school psychologist is capable of doing. Chances are that “testing” would be the most common answer given. Unfortunately, the school psychologist is often seen as providing a very limited specific psychometric service and is not utilized to provide many of the additional services for which they have been trained.
