You've always sensed you were wired differently. You see patterns in situations that others miss. You feel emotions more intensely than most. Maybe you've struggled to connect with others. Maybe the things that come easily to you make your struggles invisible to everyone else. You deserve a thorough, honest neuropsychiatric assessment that gives you a clear roadmap of your strengths, differences, and direction.
I specialize in comprehensive neuropsychiatric assessment for giftedness, twice-exceptionality (2e), ADHD, autism, and learning differences — ages 7 and up. Assessment only — no therapy, no medication management. A detailed written report and personalized recommendations that finally make sense of how your brain works.
A comprehensive assessment brings your whole story into focus and gives you personalized, actionable recommendations to move forward with intention. I take a limited number of assessments each quarter, and fall 2026 is nearly full. Book a free 15-minute phone consultation through my website today!
