Psychological Counseling, Testing and Treatment Services in English and Spanish.
Our minds can be our best friend. Life also poses challenges when it seems just the opposite. What can one do when help is needed?
Therapeutic Services
The brain is like a garden. When it is all working, everything seems bright and cheery. There are times when just the opposite is occurring.
My therapeutic practice addresses concerns such as:
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorders (A.D.H.D and A.D.D.).
Neuropsychological Evaluations and Forensic Psychological Assessments.
Why see a neuropsychologist versus a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) or marriage, family therapist (MFT)?
Years of additional rigorous study (two Masters plus a Doctor of Psychology degrees), internships, therapy sessions for myself (you can only take of clients as far as one has taken care of self) and hours listening to patients in a non-judgemental approach is who I am.
Additionally, a neuropsychologist specializes in assessing how your brain is functioning in day-to-day life such as attention, concentration, memory, abstracting thinking, and problem solving.
I specialize in applying special tests such as "Test of Variable of Attention" (T.O.V.A.) to assess your Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorders (A.D.H.D.). This test helps decide whether a neuro (brain) or emotional cause is the root issue. Click here to take you to my web page which comments more specifically about ADHD and ADD.
Lastly, I am trained and licensed to conduct Forensic Psychological Assessments. These evaluations are used by judges, probation officers, lawyers and families in the process of determining the emotional health of individuals who are in prison or juvenile hall.
