About My Clients

Hello! My expertise is assessment for ADHD, anxiety, mood, learning disorders, and neuropsychological issues. I also offer pre-adoption psychological evaluations. I offer testing in-person and virtual testing (you must be located in CA for the assessment). Assessment ranges from $3,500-4,500 depending on how many disorders you are seeking testing for (e.g.: comprehensive ADHD testing = $3,500 whereas neuropsych assessment or testing to rule out ADHD, learning disorders, and autism = $4,500).

My Background and Approach

My detailed reports average at 30 pages, include personalized recommendations, and qualify you for medication, school, work, and standardized testing accommodations (when relevant to diagnostic results). I empower my clients to take the next personalized and informed steps towards effective, lasting change. We'll identify your strengths and apply these towards achieving your unique goals. You'll discover how you learn best, how you tend to interact with others and whether this is serving your goals, and what your "next steps" should be towards psychological and emotional well-being. My aim is to help you achieve a meaningful life of purpose, connection with others and fulfillment with yourself. As issues with motivation, attention & sleep commonly go hand-in-hand, I am a certified sleep therapist & certified in ADHD Management. I also offer assessment for ADHD, pre-adoption & cognitive issues.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

The number one predictor of therapeutic success is strong rapport between client and therapist. Our therapeutic relationship is the foundation for our work together. That's why I pride myself on fostering a supportive, welcoming haven. My favorite part of therapy is using the dramatic benefits the therapeutic relationship can provide as clients find peace with their past, discover fulfillment, and thrive in their present, and feel confident their future self will be more symptom-free and aligned with their unique strengths & values. While I am an ally to all ethnic and cultural minorities, I pride myself on being a highly involved advocate for the LGBTQIA+ community. Much of my research and public speaking centers around educating other clinicians on how to provide competent and compassionate care for our queer and trans clients, be it through therapy or assessment. Sessions with me will always be a welcoming space where your full authentic self is welcome, valued, and supported.
