Our Assessments

We offer a range of psychological and neuropsychological evaluations to the greater Pittsburgh area. We specialize in gender- and neuro-affirming evaluations that prioritize understanding individual strengths and identifying areas for growth using a variety of assessment tools. Our goal is that each evaluation is a constructive step toward well-being and authentic living.
Generally, families and clients come to us with questions about specific diagnoses. However, symptoms often overlap in various diagnostic categories. While we explore your primary concerns, our evaluations will look at a variety of factors to ensure an accurate diagnosis. An ADHD assessment may look closely at mood symptoms to rule out the possibility that inattention is due to anxiety. An autism evaluation will include thorough assessment of social, emotional, and executive functioning to understand if challenges are best explained by autism, ADHD, or an internalizing disorder. When complete, we provide a comprehensive assessment report that explains what we learned and provides recommendations for continued support.
