Psychoeducational Evaluations
Comprehensive assessments identify cognitive, academic, and emotional strengths and challenges. We evaluate processing speed, memory, executive functioning, and social-emotional needs to inform educational planning. Our psychologists collaborate with families and schools to develop actionable recommendations for students with learning disabilities or giftedness.
Therapy and Counseling
We provide evidence-based interventions for anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism spectrum disorders, and trauma. Our psychologists use cognitive behavioral therapy, family therapy, and play therapy to improve emotional regulation, family communication, and coping strategies. Services address school refusal, behavioral challenges, and life transitions for children and adults.
Executive Function Support
Individualized coaching strengthens time management, organization, and self-advocacy skills for students in middle school through college. We partner with families to implement structured systems for academic success. Sessions focus on planning long-term projects, test-taking strategies, and navigating educational environments effectively.
Social Skills Groups
Structured 8-week groups teach children aged 8-14 essential social skills. Participants learn active listening, conflict resolution, emotional expression, and body language recognition. Small group settings foster practice in a supportive environment. Sessions address challenges with peer relationships and social anxiety.
School Consultations
Our psychologists review IEPs, 504 plans, and educational records to ensure appropriate support.
