Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward? Therapy can provide the clarity and tools you need to create meaningful change. My ideal clients are those who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, or burnout—even if, on the outside, things seem “together.” Many are navigating demanding careers, health concerns, or life transitions and find themselves overthinking, emotionally drained, or unsure how to regain a sense of balance. They’re often looking for practical tools, clarity, and a more sustainable way of coping.

Currently, my practice primarily consists of helping adults struggling with depression, anxiety/panic, bereavement/loss, relationship issues, PTSD, bipolar disorder, and life crises and transitions. The prognosis is always good following a first visit. Given the effort it takes to find a therapist, make arrangements with the insurance company, and find the courage to show up for the appointment, the clear message is one of motivation for change, healing, and growth.

Testing and Evaluation Therapists
What is a psychological evaluation?
A psychological evaluation is a test or assessment most commonly administered by a trained psychologist that is intended to be used in the diagnosis of specific psychological conditions, such as ADHD, mood disorders, personality disorders, dementia or Alzheimer's, and learning disabilities. Psychological evaluations can help inform future treatment decisions and help direct clients to professionals and resources that may be most helpful, such as potential therapy options or additional school supports.

Can psychological evaluations be done on individuals of any age group?
Psychological evaluations are conducted on individuals of all ages and can be beneficial to individuals across the lifespan. However, specific types of evaluations may be most frequently conducted on individuals of certain age groups. For instance, ADHD or learning disability testing is often conducted in children ages 4-12--the period of time when ADHD symptoms most commonly emerge. In contrast, cognitive functioning assessments, such as those conducted to diagnose dementia, are most commonly conducted in elderly individuals. Clients should ensure that the psychologist they are seeing has specific expertise in conducting evaluations in their age group to ensure they receive a correct diagnosis.

How long does a psychological evaluation take?
Psychological evaluations vary in length depending on the test being administered and the goals of the evaluation; however, most evaluations are 2-4 hours in length. Some evaluations may take as long as 8 hours but can often be spread across multiple days. In some cases, clients will also attend an intake session or interview, which can help the psychologist assess client functioning outside of the testing environment.

How should I prepare for a psychological test and evaluation?
Individuals do not need to prepare for psychological tests or evaluations in most cases, as they are intended to measure a client's baseline psychological status without test-specific preparation. However, clients may want to brainstorm a list of questions for their psychologist about any tests they are receiving prior to the assessment, including what potential outcomes may mean for what next steps the client should take.
