I provide comprehensive psychological evaluations for adolescents and adults seeking greater clarity and understanding of their cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and psychological functioning. My approach to assessment is individualized and collaborative, with the goal of looking beyond symptoms to better understand the factors contributing to an individual’s experiences and concerns.
I conduct evaluations for ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, personality and emotional functioning, learning and cognitive concerns, diagnostic clarification, and complex psychological presentations. I also provide pre-operative psychological evaluations for bariatric surgery and other assessment services when diagnostic clarification or treatment recommendations are needed.
The evaluation process may incorporate clinical interviewing, standardized psychological and cognitive testing, behavioral measures, and relevant background information to develop a comprehensive understanding of each individual. When appropriate, collateral information and additional measures may also be incorporated to strengthen diagnostic understanding.
Following the evaluation, clients receive feedback regarding their results, diagnostic impressions when applicable, and individualized recommendations. My goal is for each evaluation to provide more than a diagnosis. I strive to help clients understand their strengths, challenges, and patterns of functioning while providing practical recommendations that can guide treatment, academic or occupational supports, and next steps.
Assessment areas include:
- ADHD evaluations
- Autism spectrum evaluations
- Personality and emotional functioning
- Cognitive and intellectual functioning
- Learning and academic concerns
- Diagnostic clarification and differential diagnosis
- Complex psychological presentations
- Pre-operative bariatric surgery evaluations
- Treatment and support recommendations
I work with adolescents and adults and aim to provide an assessment experience that is thorough, respectful, and focused on helping each individual gain meaningful answers and a clearer path forward.’
