Hi! I'm Dr. Karen Wilson, a Clinical Neuropsychologist at MindFit, with over 17 years of experience and am registered in Ontario and California. I specialize in providing comprehensive assessments to children, teens and adults and have significant expertise working with individuals with: ADHD, executive functioning challenges, giftedness, learning disabilities, anxiety, low mood, and more. I am also an Assistant Clinical Professor at UCLA, sought after speaker, and founder of ChildNEXUS.com (providing information about neurodevelopmental challenges to parents).
I use a collaborative, evidence-based, and empathetic approach to help understand the causes of an individual's difficulties. I am passionate about developing practical and effective recommendations, based on the assessment results, to help individuals build on their strengths to achieve their full potential.
I am the lead clinical neuropsychologist at MindFit, a leading 35+ clinician private practice, or what we prefer to call a "mental health gym". Seeking support can be stigmatizing and impersonal - but it doesn't need to be! Just like a typical gym, MindFit is designed to be accessible and inviting to anyone looking to improve their emotional well-being.
