The results of an evaluation should educate and empower you and/or your family as you seek treatments and interventions tailored to your child's unique needs and strengths.
Families living with the challenges of ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, and learning differences often struggle to find appropriate evaluations and interventions for children, teens, and young adults. You often feel alone and that no one experiences what you're going through. You're ready to understand WHY your child is (or you are) having difficulties, and to get tools and strategies needed for lasting improvement. As a psychologist, I use a holistic approach to assess the different factors that cause challenges for neurodiverse individuals. It's not just about the child, but the whole child AND the whole family.

Are you frustrated by your child's behavior? Children communicate through behavior. Exploring the meaning of challenging behaviors can help identify obstacles that may be preventing a child from expressing and managing strong feelings, from developing meaningful/effective relationships, and from coping with stress. The clients I typically see are resilient and want things to improve. This can mean different things I am here to help you determine how best to make this happen. I see working with the family, as well as the child, as critically important.
