Family Therapy
Our family-centered therapy addresses behavioral challenges by teaching practical skills to parents and caregivers. We focus on creating sustainable changes in family dynamics to support children's development. Sessions emphasize real-world application of strategies for managing ADHD, autism, and anxiety.

Comprehensive evaluations identify developmental, learning, and behavioral disorders using standardized tools like WISC-V and ADOS-2. Testing helps create targeted intervention plans for ADHD, autism, and learning disabilities while measuring cognitive strengths and weaknesses.

We equip parents with evidence-based techniques to manage challenging behaviors and improve family interactions. Coaching focuses on practical strategies for discipline, communication, and creating supportive home environments that foster positive development.
School Consultation
Our experts collaborate with schools to develop effective learning plans and classroom strategies. Services include observations, staff training, and creating accommodations for students with behavioral, developmental, or learning challenges.

Report
Dr. Knight is one of those rare psychologists who balances compassion with an immense knowledge of evidence-based treatments (that is, therapy that WORKS). I enthusiastically recommend his expertise.
