Dyslexia Testing in Missouri for Kids, Teens, and Adults

Clear Answers for Reading and Learning Challenges

The HERO Clinic provides professional dyslexia testing in Missouri for kids, teens, and adults.

Many children and adults with dyslexia are bright, curious, and capable—but reading, spelling, or writing feels exhausting and frustrating. Homework may take hours, reading aloud may cause anxiety, or written work may not reflect how much someone truly understands.

Dyslexia testing helps uncover how the brain processes language and learning. With the right information, families and individuals can move forward with confidence, effective strategies, and support that actually works.

Dyslexia is not about intelligence or effort. It’s about understanding how someone learns—and how to support it.

Dyslexia Testing for Teens and Adults

Many individuals are not evaluated for dyslexia until later in life—often after years of working around reading and writing difficulties.

Dyslexia testing for teens and adults can help explain long-standing academic struggles, workplace challenges, or difficulty with written communication. A professional evaluation can also support accommodations in school, college, testing environments, or work settings.

Our approach respects individual experiences and focuses on both strengths and learning needs, without judgment.
