I work with adults (20+) who are seeking clarity about how their brain works and why certain challenges persist in their daily lives. Many of my clients wonder whether they might have ADHD, autism (or both—AuDHD), be gifted, or twice-exceptional (2e). They often carry a lifetime of feeling misunderstood, inconsistent, or “out of sync” with societal expectations. Their goal is to better understand themselves through a thorough, respectful, and evidence-based neuropsychological evaluation that helps make sense of their experiences.
I offer neuropsychological evaluations to clarify ADHD, autism, giftedness, and learning differences. Even without a formal psychology diagnosis, the process can bring clarity and direction. My approach is collaborative, evidence-based, and attuned to how neurodivergence shows up in adulthood.
You deserve to feel seen and understood. If you’re ready to explore your cognitive strengths and challenges in a thoughtful, non-judgmental space, I’m here to accompany you through this process.
