professional help and to identify when is the right time and who is the right person to help your family. It is useful to consider how to approach finding a mental health provider or gifted learning coach and what you should expect from the process of working with a practitioner who specializes in gifted &amp; talented people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When considering having your child assessed, it is important to understand the testing process and what information you would gain from completing an intelligence or achievement test. For many parents, finding someone who understands gifted &amp; talented characteristics is important in the assessment process. Specialists in gifted &amp; talented will provide feedback on how to use assessment data and lead to more successful assessment experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Parents are encouraged to talk directly with each practitioner to determine the fit between your needs and the services, fees, and expertise of each individual.
