My clients have a wide range of reasons for seeking a psychological evaluation. I am able to work in many expert areas and have over 20 years of clinical experience. Adult and child autism and ADHD assessments are offered. I also do forensic evaluations for guardianship, competency, court-ordered evaluations, etc. I also offer neuropsychological evaluations for many concerns such as dementia or TBI. I offer educational/academic evaluations for college students who need accommodations or persons who wish to document a disability and apply for disability.
I offer evaluations specific to several areas of practice such as clinical diagnosis and treatment planning, educational/academic in order to seek accommodations or engage in educational planning, document diagnoses for disability applications and services, forensic evaluations for competency, guardianship needs, and more.
I provide comprehensive psychological evaluations using gold standard assessments. I will provide a comprehensive written report and 1 hour review session within 4 weeks from the assessment date. Appointments are usually available in 1-2 weeks.
