School Observations

Watching a child in their natural environment offers a perspective that no office-based evaluation can fully replicate. School observations allow Dr. Robokos to gather first-hand information about how a child functions in real-world settings, including their classroom, educational program, or therapeutic environment, providing valuable insight into skills, behaviors, and dynamics that may not surface in a one-on-one clinical setting.

These naturalistic observations are particularly helpful in determining whether a child's current educational plan or program placement is the right fit, and what adjustments, if any, might better serve their needs. Recommendations made following a school observation are grounded in what was directly seen and experienced, making them especially practical and actionable for families and school teams alike.

School placement is one of the most common and consequential questions families face, and Dr. Robokos brings extensive experience with the full range of public, private, general education, special education, and alternative program options across New York City, Westchester, Long Island, Connecticut, and New Jersey. That breadth of knowledge allows her to offer informed, specific guidance tailored to each child's individual profile and needs.
