The goal of thoughtful assessment is to help children and families gain a better understanding of the unique way they think, learn, and navigate through the world. Using a strengths-based and holistic assessment, I aim to help children recognize exceptional strengths alongside challenges, feel confident and understood, and provide families with targeted and practical recommendations for support.
My interest and experience in neuropsychological assessment stems from my undergraduate studies in psychology and neuroscience at Stanford University, followed by extensive graduate and postdoctoral training at UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital and Kaiser Permanente Santa Rosa.
I assess children and adolescents across all age ranges, with particular expertise in attention-deficit and executive functioning challenges, learning differences, neurodiversity, and emotional disruption.
My goal is for every client to gain a better understanding of their unique strengths and needs, and to feel truly understood and supported. Assessment should illuminate not just challenges, but also the remarkable capabilities that can be leveraged to support growth and success.
