Psychological testing and autism/ADHD evaluation

Comprehensive psychological and educational assessment for children, adolescents and adults, including dedicated autism spectrum and ADHD testing clinics. Batteries are tailored to each child and usually cover cognitive, academic achievement and social/emotional processing. It can help identify learning disabilities, intellectual disabilities and behavioral or emotional difficulties, and supports requests for school and standardized-test accommodations. The process starts with a 1-hour telehealth intake, then two testing sessions of 3-4 hours each, usually on a weekend day and in person, followed by a written report with recommendations and a feedback session; a separate child-friendly feedback session is suggested for children. Offices in Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica and Encino. The practice does not take insurance but provides superbills for out-of-network reimbursement.
