Psychological testing can be a critical tool in clarifying diagnoses, assisting psychiatrists in making decisions about medication, and providing recommendations and resources to support decision-making about treatment. Psychological testing is commonly recommended to diagnose ADHD or learning disabilities. College students are often referred for this type of testing because they are struggling in school for the first time and there are no known reasons for their challenges. My therapy sessions are designed to provide patients with effective tools to help them cope with life's stressors and improve their overall well-being. My expertise is in providing psychological testing services for children & adults ages 6+ to assist with diagnostic clarification for conditions such as ADHD or learning disorders. I also work with adults ages 18+ for therapy. I use an integrated approach to treat a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, and women's issues. My biggest priorities are making my clients feel that they are in a safe environment and helping them to understand we are a team, working towards a common goal. When conducting psychological evaluations I strive to help clients better understand their own unique strengths and weaknesses and support them by providing recommendations and resources.
