I currently provide psychoeducational testing to rule out any attention deficits, anxiety, depression, learning disorders.
I am here to help you identify the source of the problem through psychological testing. I test both children and adults and can help rule out whether the anxiety or ADHD symptoms are keeping you (or your child) from achieving both academic and personal growth. Moreover, at times, children have learning disorders that impede them from growing. By having your child tested, if applicable, your child can receive an IEP and extra time at school. There are many ways that psychoeducational testing can help you or your child. Call us for more information.

I offer testing for gifted, ADHD, & learning disabilities for ages 5+.
You’re successful & smart, but your relationships are EPIC failures. The harder you look for happiness, the farther it slips away. Why is this so easy for others but SO hard for you? Your inner critic whispers your deepest fears: the past left you too damaged & unlovable. After years of repeating patterns, it’s time to stop your past from defining the present and stealing your future. You're ready to end the cycle of toxic relationships, have supportive friendships, & a loving partner. Instead of dreading it, coping effectively with family conflict would be great. Getting you there is my specialty.

Is life about being happy? If a person were to ask you are you happy can you respond to that question truly, or do you smile and say yes. But the truth is when you think about it, you know there is something wrong, you can't seem to identify what it is- but you know you have slowly changed and now you do not recognize yourself. You know you have endured so much and just can't deal anymore - but the problem is if you are keeping to yourself/isolating inorder to protect yourself from more pain, are you really protecting yourself or just isolating yourself and keeping yourself from living your life.

Education and Learning Disabilities Therapists

How effective is treatment for learning disabilities?

When initiated early and tailored to a child’s specific needs, learning disability treatment can be quite effective at helping a child cope with their disability, though its exact efficacy may depend on the severity of symptoms and whether comorbid disorders exist. Less is known about treatment initiated in adulthood, but it is certainly possible that an adult with a learning disability will see some improvement—or at the very least, identify workarounds and accommodations that could make symptoms less burdensome in day-to-day life.

When should someone seek treatment for learning disabilities?

It’s best to seek treatment as early as possible. Because learning disabilities often go unnoticed until a child starts school, or even until they’re a few years along, regular check-ins with teachers and doctors can help parents determine whether children are meeting milestones and keeping up with peers or whether an evaluation for learning disabilities may be warranted. And although earlier is always better, it’s never too late to be evaluated for learning disabilities and to seek treatment.

What happens if learning disabilities are left untreated?

Undiagnosed and untreated learning disabilities can be a source of significant frustration and shame for a child, who may feel that their challenges stem from a lack of intelligence or willpower. Such feelings can trigger low self-esteem, depression, or anxiety, which may push a child toward risky behaviors, including substance use. In adulthood, untreated learning disabilities can interfere with career success, and lingering feelings of self-doubt and shame can negatively affect someone’s mental health.

Are there medications for learning disabilities?

Currently, there are no medications designed to treat specific learning disabilities such as dysgraphia or dyscalculia. However, someone with a learning disability may be prescribed medication for a comorbid condition, such as anxiety, depression, or ADHD, which may have positive downstream effects on their learning disability; for example, a child with both ADHD and dyslexia may find that they’re better able to focus on their reading exercises after being prescribed a stimulant medication.
