Comprehensive psychological assessment and therapy for children, adolescents, and adults. Specializing in ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder — with a strengths-based approach that sees you as a whole person.
"Understanding the whole person — not just the diagnosis."
We make the evaluation process straightforward and transparent — so you always know what to expect and why.
We begin with a free 15-minute phone or video call. We'll talk about your concerns, answer your questions, explain the evaluation process, and make sure we're the right fit for your needs.
If we're a good fit, we'll schedule a full psychodiagnostic evaluation. This includes clinical interviews, standardized testing, behavioral observations, and collateral information — tailored to your age and referral question.
Once testing is complete, we meet to review your results together. We'll walk through the findings, explain the diagnosis (if applicable), and provide concrete, personalized recommendations for school, work, and daily life.
A comprehensive assessment of attention, executive functioning, and behavior — for children, teens, and adults. Each evaluation integrates standardized testing, clinical interviews, and collateral information to provide clear, meaningful results and practical recommendations.
Gold-standard diagnostic assessment using the ADOS-2 and standardized measures. Affirming, nuanced, and attentive to all autistic presentations — including late-identified adults and women.
When both ADHD and autism may be present, an integrated evaluation untangles the full picture — providing an accurate, actionable diagnosis and clear recommendations.
Insight-oriented, evidence-based therapy for adults navigating anxiety, depression, life transitions, identity, relationships, and the everyday challenges of a neurodivergent mind.
Support for families navigating the school system — including IEP meetings, accommodation planning, and guidance for educators on how to best support neurodivergent students.
Clinically sound written reports designed to be understood and used — with specific recommendations for school, work, and treatment. Second-opinion evaluations also available.
We bring the evaluation to you. In-home assessments are ideal for younger children, individuals with sensory sensitivities, or anyone who performs better in a familiar environment. Travel surcharge applies.
When time matters, we offer priority scheduling and accelerated report delivery. Ideal for urgent school placements, IEP timelines, workplace accommodation deadlines, or families who simply can't wait months for answers.
Our practice is private pay. This preserves your privacy and allows us to focus on what you need — not what insurance dictates. We provide a superbill you can submit to your insurer for potential out-of-network reimbursement.
Early identification changes trajectories. We provide compassionate, child-friendly evaluations that help families understand their child and secure the right support at school and home.
Whether it's academic struggles, social challenges, or a sense of being "different," a clear evaluation provides direction and relief at a critical time — for teens and their families.
Adults seeking a diagnosis, therapy, workplace accommodations, or simply a deeper understanding of how their mind works will find a practice that takes their experience seriously.
California Regional Centers provide services and funding for individuals with developmental disabilities, including autism. Families who are already Regional Center clients may be eligible to have assessment services covered through their Regional Center — with a referral from their case worker.
We welcome Regional Center referrals and are happy to coordinate directly with your case worker to make the process as smooth as possible.
"Understanding how your mind works is not the end of the journey — it is the beginning."
