For over 35 years, our practice has been dedicated to providing comprehensive diagnostic evaluations for a variety of issues, including Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD), learning disabilities, giftedness, developmental delays, and autism spectrum disorders. As one of only 4% of psychologists in the United States to be Board Certified in Clinical Psychology by the American Board of Professional Psychology, we strive to deliver exceptional care to our patients.

As a licensed psychologist, we have had the privilege of practicing in northern Palm Beach County for over three decades. We offer a range of services designed to help individuals of all ages, from children to adults. Our expertise extends to evaluating students for test and other educational accommodations based on their disability, as well as conducting diagnostic evaluations for children who may have some behavioral/mental health disorder. We can refer all children we evaluate to appropriate treatment resources.

In addition to our clinical services, we also offer specialized evaluations for law enforcement agencies. With over 25 years of experience in conducting pre-employment and fitness-for-duty evaluations for law enforcement agencies, we understand the importance of accuracy and discretion in these evaluations.

As a respected expert in our field, we have had the privilege of publishing several articles on learning disabilities and Attention Deficit Disorder. Our book, "Teaching Kids with Mental Health and Learning Disorders in the Regular Classroom, " has sold over 12,000 copies and has been published in four languages. We have also authored "A Practical Guide to Mental Health & Learning Disorders for Every Educator" and have spoken on numerous Celebrity cruises and at the Lifelong Learning Societies at Florida Atlantic University and University of California San Diego.

Law Enforcement Evaluations

We have achieved Diplomate status with the Society for Police and Criminal Psychology and have been conducting pre-employment and fitness-for-duty evaluations for law enforcement agencies for over 25 years. Our evaluations are designed to assess the fitness of law enforcement officers for duty, ensuring that they are mentally and emotionally equipped to handle the demands of their work. Our services are tailored to meet the specific needs of law enforcement agencies, including:

• Pre-employment evaluations
• Fitness-for-duty evaluations
• Critical incident stress debriefings

Our evaluations are designed to provide accurate and comprehensive assessments of law enforcement personnel, providing critical information to ensure public safety and maintain the integrity of our law enforcement agencies.

Gifted Evaluations

As an expert in the field of gifted education, we offer comprehensive evaluations for children seeking placement in a gifted program. Our evaluations consider a range of factors, including individualized intelligence tests and teacher reports, to provide a comprehensive assessment of each child's cognitive abilities. Our evaluations are designed to be thorough and efficient, ensuring that you receive accurate and timely results.

Our gifted evaluation process involves administering the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (WISC-V) to children 6 and older and the Wechsler Primary & Preschool Intelligence Scale (WPPSI-IV) to 4 and 5-year-olds. The Wechsler tests are considered the "gold standard" for individual IQ tests.

Conclusion

At our practice, we are dedicated to delivering exceptional diagnostic evaluations and testing services for individuals of all ages. From gifted evaluations to law enforcement evaluations, we strive to provide accurate and comprehensive assessments that meet the unique needs of each individual. With over 35 years of experience, we are committed to delivering exceptional care to our patients and clients.
