You’re a teen or adult who looks capable on the outside but feels overwhelmed inside. Maybe you live with anxiety, trauma, ADHD, or autism and struggle with overthinking, emotional intensity, burnout, or feeling different. You may feel stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, constantly “on edge,” or exhausted from masking and trying to meet everyone else’s expectations. You want relief from stress, healthier relationships, stronger emotional regulation, and a clearer sense of who you are—without feeling judged, dismissed, or misunderstood.

I do psychological testing, psychotherapy, and psychoanalysis with children, adolescents, and adults.
My patients often wrestle with anxiety, depression, relationships, or addictions. Demoralized over feeling ineffective, they may find it difficult to understand themselves. Self-blame can lead to worries about unlike-ability and unlovability, or feeling unworthy of a relationship. They may treat others in negative ways they were treated growing up, pushing others away, preventing healing experiences from disrupting negative, unhealthy dynamics. Long-standing and entrenched personality patterns may lead to addictions to substances or behaviors as ways of denying painful feelings and memories, which makes problems worse.

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.
