Secure video conferencing is available. As a licensed neuropsychologist, I possess expertise in understanding the relationship between behavior and skills. My practice is dedicated to assisting adults, parents, and their children—whether they are struggling or identified as twice-exceptional (2e) or worried about dementia. The greatest joy in my work lies in helping to uncover each individual's strengths, so that areas of weakness do not become the primary aspect of their identity. A correct diagnosis is essential for determining the most effective path forward. These evaluations can also be instrumental for IEP or 504 plans.
Many individuals experience difficulties with executive skills, reading, or memory, which can affect daily life. I am dedicated to helping people identify these challenges. This detailed process enables the formation of both a diagnosis and a treatment plan tailored to individual needs.
I work with you no matter how complicated life has become. The strength of my practice is being able to take into account all areas of life and make a diagnosis and complete treatment plan. The evaluation gets to the root of a problem so we can find a way through it. Adoption evaluations are also available.
