Psychological Testing and Evaluations In Arlington, Virginia
Psychological testing can provide a clearer understanding of strengths and challenges while identifying supports that can help you or your child reach your full potential.
I provide comprehensive evaluations for children, adolescents, and adults in Arlington, VA. Assessments are individualized, evidence-based, and designed to provide clear answers and practical recommendations in a supportive, collaborative environment.
Testing may be helpful when academic or learning challenges persist despite strong effort, when attention or organizational difficulties are interfering with daily life, when emotional or behavioral concerns feel difficult to untangle, or when previous diagnoses or treatment have not fully explained ongoing struggles. Evaluations can also provide documentation for school, workplace, or standardized testing accommodations when appropriate.
