Alzheimer's Therapists in Reno, NV

Due to Covid and increase in need for mental health treatment I have limited space. I am only accepting clients with referral from physicians with chronic health problems and mood disturbance at this time. I have a speciality in clinical health psychology which means I treat BOTH emotional, mood and physical health problems. I have specialized training in the treatment of insomnia, chronic pain, anxiety and depression. I worked many years at the VA hospital so have interest in PTSD and trauma treatment. I also have a background in geriatrics working with older adults with dementia and family caregiver support. Please see website.

At Reno Psy Services we specialize in psychological assessment including clinical assessment, forensic assessment, and neuropsychological assessment.

In the case of forensic assessment psychological assessment is typically performed in the context of divorce proceedings, personal injury litigation, or criminal proceedings.The cost of psychological testing starts at $750 and can be $2,500+ depending on what is needed.

It's my philosophy to meet you where you are today, and honor you as the expert on your life. I use music therapy as a method for therapeutic change to address many concerns a person may face on their journey, as well as to enhance overall wellness and quality of life. I understand the process of engaging in music as a neurological and psychological science, and as a holistic way of being. Any person struggling with emotional, physical, cognitive, identity, or other personhood issues may benefit from music therapy.

Do you want to better understand your brain health and how you can support it for optimal cognitive function and aging? You (or your loved one) may benefit from a neuropsychological evaluation and/or a brain health consultation at Peak Neuropsychology.
