We provide in-depth testing for ADHD, autism, learning disorders, anxiety, depression, giftedness, and more. Our comprehensive evaluations go beyond scores. They help you understand your child’s unique strengths and struggles, and give you clear recommendations for school supports, college accommodations, and practical strategies at home. Serving Bellevue and the greater Seattle area.
You’ve noticed the signs. Maybe your child is falling behind in school, melting down over small things, or pulling away in ways that don’t feel like “just a phase.”
You’ve done your best to support them, but something still feels off, and no one seems to have clear answers. It’s heartbreaking and overwhelming to watch your child struggle and not know how to help.
A neuropsychological evaluation helps you make sense of your child’s struggles and uncover the strengths that can guide the way. As you begin to see your child with greater clarity and compassion, they also begin to see themselves differently: no longer defined by challenges, but recognized as capable, lovable, and full of promise.
As a pediatric neuropsychologist, I help you make sense of what’s going on beneath the surface. When a child struggles with learning, emotions, behavior, or attention, it’s hard to know why or what to do next.
I take a compassionate, comprehensive look at how your child’s brain works and how that connects to daily life.
The goal: uncover strengths, clarify challenges, and guide you toward what will truly help.
This isn’t just about getting answers. It’s about understanding your child in a way that brings insight, relief, and a clear path forward.
It helps uncover the why behind challenges with attention, learning, emotions, or behavior, so you’re not left guessing. This process provides a clear, holistic picture of your child’s strengths and needs.
When you understand how your child’s mind works, you can begin to respond in ways that actually help.
A neuropsychology evaluation helps connect the dots between brain function and everyday struggles, guiding families and educators with practical, individualized recommendations. It’s a step toward clarity, confidence, and support that actually fits your child.
