Worth the Drive
What Triad families come to Cary for
For a family in Greensboro or High Point, Cary is a deliberate choice. Families make the drive for a thorough, individualized evaluation from a psychologist who spent more than 15 years inside North Carolina public schools, with a report written so parents, schools, and colleges can act on it.
Dyslexia and learning disorders
Specific testing for dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia, from early elementary school through adulthood for people who were never identified as children.
Learn moreAutism assessments
Initial evaluations and re-evaluations for ages 4 through adulthood, with a structured diagnostic protocol and close parent involvement throughout.
Learn morePrivate school evaluations
Private and faith-based schools do not run special education evaluations the way public schools do. Rebecca evaluates the student and gives the school specific accommodation recommendations it can put in place.
Learn moreHomeschool achievement testing
North Carolina's required annual achievement test, given one on one with the Woodcock-Johnson Fifth Edition. Ask about testing siblings on the same day so one trip covers everyone.
Learn moreTherapy by secure video
Therapy for children, teens, and young adults through age 22 for anxiety, school stress, self-confidence, and attention-related struggles. Secure video makes weekly sessions practical from the Triad.

An outside evaluation, planned around the drive
Whether your child attends Guilford County Schools, a charter, private, or faith-based school, or learns at home, an independent evaluation gives you a full clinical picture that belongs to your family. Rebecca spent more than 15 years as a school psychologist in North Carolina public schools before opening her practice, so she knows what a school evaluation covers and what it does not.
What independent testing adds
A school evaluation is built to decide whether a student qualifies for special education services, and it runs on the district's timeline. An independent evaluation asks what is actually going on with your child, uses the tests Rebecca judges best for the question, and is written for you first.
You decide who sees the report. When you bring it to an IEP team, federal law requires the team to consider it.
- A second opinion when you disagree with the school team
- A broader battery than eligibility testing usually includes
- Documentation colleges and testing boards ask for
- Support preparing for IEP and 504 meetings
What the drive from Greensboro looks like
Anchor EEC is typically an hour and ten minutes to an hour and a half from Greensboro, east on I-40/I-85 and then I-40. Whitsett and Gibsonville are closer to an hour, and High Point and Jamestown add ten to twenty minutes.
The first conversation is a phone call. Rebecca learns what you are seeing and recommends the right evaluation before you commit to a trip. After that, most evaluations take two or three visits: one or two testing sessions and an in-person feedback session where she walks you through the report.
Therapy works differently. Secure video sessions are available for clients located in North Carolina, so a teen or young adult in Greensboro can meet with Rebecca weekly without the drive.
Beyond the School Years
College, ESA+, and adult evaluations for Greensboro families
With UNC Greensboro, NC A&T, Guilford College, High Point University, and GTCC close to home, many Triad families are planning for college accommodations, and many adults are wondering for the first time whether ADHD or a learning disorder explains years of extra effort.
College transition testing
IEPs and 504 plans do not follow a student to college. Whether a student is staying in the Triad or going across the state, the disability office will ask for current documentation. Rebecca provides updated evaluations for college accommodations and ACT or SAT accommodation requests.
Learn moreAdult evaluations
College students, graduate students, and working adults who were never tested in school can get answers about ADHD, learning disorders, and cognitive concerns, along with documentation for accommodations at school or work.
Learn moreESA+ renewals
Families using North Carolina's ESA+ scholarship need updated documentation of continuing eligibility. Anchor EEC is on the official NCSEAA provider list and accepts ClassWallet payments.

Common Questions
Questions from Greensboro families
How far is Anchor EEC from Greensboro?
Anchor EEC is at 106 New Edition Court, Cary, NC 27511. From Greensboro, the drive is typically an hour and ten minutes to an hour and a half, east on I-40/I-85 and then I-40. Whitsett and Gibsonville are closer to an hour, and High Point and Jamestown add ten to twenty minutes. It is a real drive, which is why the first conversation happens by phone and the number of trips is kept small.
How many trips does an evaluation take from Greensboro?
Usually two or three. Testing takes one or two sessions depending on the evaluation, and then Rebecca meets with you in person to go through the report and answer questions. Most families have the written report and feedback session within about three to four weeks of testing. Nothing requires a trip until testing day.
Can Guilford County Schools use an evaluation from Anchor EEC?
Yes. Under federal special education law, a school team must consider an outside evaluation that parents bring to them when making decisions about a student. Rebecca spent more than 15 years as a school psychologist in North Carolina public schools, so her reports are written with IEP and 504 meetings in mind.
My student is starting college. What documentation will the disability office want?
Most college disability offices want a recent evaluation that documents the diagnosis, how it affects learning, and which accommodations are recommended. An IEP or 504 plan from high school often is not enough on its own. Rebecca provides updated evaluations for college accommodations and for ACT or SAT accommodation requests, and it helps to start a semester or more before the student needs them.
Is therapy practical if we live in the Triad?
Yes. Rebecca provides therapy for children, teens, and young adults through age 22. Sessions are held in person in Cary, and secure video sessions are available for clients located in North Carolina, so weekly therapy does not depend on the drive.
Can you test more than one homeschooled child in one visit?
Ask when you call. North Carolina requires an annual nationally standardized achievement test for every homeschool student, and families driving from Guilford County can ask about testing siblings on the same day so one trip covers everyone. Rebecca administers the Woodcock-Johnson Fifth Edition one on one and writes a report for each child.
