Provider information

Description

Hello! I’m Allison and I am a school and clinical psychologist. For just shy of two decades I have been heavily involved in assessment work with children, teens, and adults. I provide high-quality assessments that look at the whole person, not just their challenges. My approach is strengths-based, meaning I focus on what’s working, not just on what’s hard. With strong training and a deep commitment to my clients, my goal is to produce meaningful assessments that truly support individual growth. To do this, we will spend a lot of time talking about what’s next, after the assessment is finished.
