Assessments are tailored to the individual situation, but typically include a detailed interview; evaluation of relevant cognitive skills; exploration of mood, stress, and broader psychological functioning; and helpful and realistic recommendations.
I'm a board-certified clinical neuropsychologist who helps people impacted by ADHD, strokes, head injuries, procrastination, and executive impairments. I offer individual psychotherapy and neuropsychological assessment to late teens and adults impacted by these issues, as well as LD and other neurologic problems. In therapy, I use cognitive behavioral, assertiveness, and motivational interviewing methods to help you build skills to more effectively manage your symptoms at work and at home. I'm licensed in IL, NY, and also offer telehealth sessions to clients in Psy-Pact participating states (Google: Psypact Map for full details).

I specialize in helping parents bridge that gap. Whether it’s attention, learning hurdles, or 'hidden' strengths that mask struggles, I provide the clarity needed to stop the guessing game and start the progress.

I support adults navigating anxiety, burnout, relationship challenges, and ADHD. You might find yourself overthinking, second-guessing decisions, or stuck in patterns that feel hard to break. Sometimes, there’s just a sense that something isn’t quite right, even when life looks fine on the outside. You may want deeper, more fulfilling relationships, but notice yourself holding back, shutting down, or creating distance. ADHD can add another layer of complexity, affecting not only daily life but also how you understand and relate to yourself.

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.
