Are you struggling with learning, anxiety, depression, and attention deficit and you need assessment right away? Or perhaps your child is too gifted and talented and not working to its potential with another failing report card on its way and it is clear that your child needs help. It leaves you completely overwhelmed, feeling like you are the only person trying to do anything about it as the school is letting it all happen. You see several struggles in reading, writing, organization, forgetting things learned, making the same mistakes over and over again? Do you wonder if your child needs IEP/504 or gifted education?

I am currently NOT taking new patients. I am a pediatric neuropsychologist and have been working with children, adolescents, and their families for 20+ years. I perform comprehensive evaluations when children are not meeting developmental milestones or are struggling in school or at home. I help parents identify their child's strengths and feel more effective at managing their challenges. I have expertise in autism, ADHD, learning disorders, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, depression, giftedness, and neurodevelopmental delays. In my work, I strive to provide a warm and supportive environment.

Hello there! I'm Dr. Zochowski-Tullio (a.k.a. "Dr. Z" or "Dr. Michelle"), and I am a Licensed Psychologist. I received my Ph.D. in Educational Psychology from UNLV and spent significant time working with Neurodiverse populations. While I have previously provided therapy to clients of all ages, I am not currently taking any new therapy clients at this time. My focus has shifted to conducting neurodevelopmental assessments for children and adolescents under 18, exclusively for those covered by Teachers Health Trust (THT). I am dedicated to assisting individuals and families in understanding and navigating neurodevelopmental challenges

Having children in todays society can be tough as well as the struggles you and your child might be experiencing due to impulsive behaviors, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem related to a learning disability. As these symptoms may bring confusion in the home, lack of communication, and aggressive behaviors, there is always hope in the rehabilitation of our children today. I have 7 years experience working with children in the behavioral health field of all ages in the re-directive cognitive behaviors as well as rehabilitation to assist and bring the home environment back into a healthy place to enjoy family bonding.

Life can be complicated, overwhelming, and stressful at times. It can feel as though nothing is going as planned and other times as if making the right choice feels wrong. Therapy can be a powerful tool to help with the difficulties of life. I have worked with a wide range of individuals and families on various issues: neurodivergent issues (including ADHD, ASD, learning disabilities, and neurodiverse relationships), processing & adjusting to diagnosed chronic medical issues, military & veteran issues, burnout, anxiety & panic disorders, depressive disorders, LGBTQIA+ related issues, existential life questions, and self-esteem.

I am dedicated to helping you achieve your goals in a personable and positive environment. I will be here to guide you through learning how to set and maintain boundaries within your relationships and create the ability to advocate for yourself. My approach to treatment is client-led, and I will encourage you to step out of your comfort zone and build the abilities needed to manage your symptoms.

Clinicians at Calm Gardens Therapy have worked with a variety of individuals, from children with selective mutism or other behavioral concerns to individuals with anxiety, depression, bi-polar disorder, and so on. Our clinicians are here to help provide support to our clients to improve their overall well-being and mental health.

I specialize in neuropsychology testing and assessment for school age children and adolescents. When children are having difficulty in school or at home it is important to evaluate cognitive, educational, emotional, and social functioning. Your child may find school difficult due to a learning disability, ADHD, or another factor which may be interfering with learning. On the other hand, your child may find school boring and "too easy". A neuropsychological assessment will help you better understand your child's needs in school and at home and start you on the path to better meeting those needs.

I work best with high functioning people who are successful in life but need someone to talk to to better understand themselves and their growth/development potential. Often my clients are successful people in High Tech or other industries who want to brainstorm about challenges at work. I also work with people who want to make a career transition. I work with couples and families to resolve conflict and work out better ways of relating. Other topics include parenting, issues with children, finding meaning at a later stage in life.

I provide individual therapy to older adolescents and adults of all ages. I am drawn to working with individuals who want to resolve issues stemming from childhood and or adult trauma adversities. The areas I most work with are trauma and somatic related disorders, depression, mood and schizoaffective disorders, ADHD and learning difficulties, interpersonal relationship skills, narcissistic abuse, phase of life issues, and spiritual concerns/issues. Furthermore, I am passionate to assist individuals who are suffering with health issues, traumatic brain injury, and strokes to overcome mental and physical barriers.

Therapy can be an invitation to explore our inner world and how it relates to the development of the self, relationships, and our way of making meaning in this world. My aim as a psychologist is to offer that unique space to clients where transformation, challenge and deeper understanding can occur. I specialize in work with LGBTQ+ youth and adults, in grief and loss, end of life concerns, identity development, trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic illness, and psychosocial oncology. I work with adults, children, and adolescents for psychotherapy and provide assessments for autism, learning disabilities and social/emotional concerns.

As a clinical psychologist, I help adolescents and adults work through problems such as anxiety, OCD, depression, stress, and interpersonal issues. Together, we will discuss goals for therapy and create a plan to meet those goals. I will assist you in learning how to identify unhelpful, automatic thoughts and restructure those thoughts into more helpful ones. Everyone experiences upsetting, stressful, and anxiety-provoking times in life, and my goal is to teach you skills that you can utilize throughout your life, beyond the therapy room.

I'm so glad you're here. I appreciate the courage it takes to seek help, especially when you're unsure where to start. By researching your next step, you've already shown you're ready for personal growth in some manner. It may be fuzzy at the moment, but the spark is there: Desperate to be free of the negative and thirsty for living a positive, happy life. I assure you, you have every right to believe that your life can become more harmonious and in balance. I offer an environment in which discovery is encouraged. What makes you happy? What do you find fulfilling, exciting, fun? Are there areas that you need to change?

My goal is to ensure that clients receive accurate diagnoses as correctly identifying clients issues leads to find the best and most effective treatment for their problems. When psychological testing is needed to make the correct diagnosis or to clarify the issues underlying the client's problems, I select the best measures and complete the testing efficiently so that clients can get the answers they need as quickly as possible. I was trained in a scientifically based highly rated clinical psychology program so I am trained to approach evaluations and treatment in empirically validated ways.

Employed in the field of social and mental health services for 30 years. Working in a variety of settings has offered me the opportunity to understand human behavior and in general what makes people tick. This may sound odd to the lay person but my vast working experiences in places like foster care, drug and alcohol, mobile mental health services to children in their own home has truly prepared me to get a really good sense of how to get to the root of the problem and provide the necessary support to clients not strictly coming from an academic viewpoint.
