About me
With over 20+ years of clinical and leadership experience in psychology, medicine, education/training, and national nonprofit organizations and the owner of a boutique psychological practice, my team and I enjoy working with clients from all stages across the lifespan and from diverse demographic groups to identify, diagnose, and treat the full spectrum of mental disorders and related concerns.
At Clarity Psychological Services, we are a small, personalized practice focused on quality over quantity with an emphasis on individualized, compassionate, respectful and competent care. We we provide services to clients of all ages, and offer unique programs for youth and special populations. We will match you with a clinician with whom you feel comfortable, who has the necessaryexpertise to help you, and who will provide tailored services using proven approaches to support you in defining and reaching your mental health goals.
Services include:
Individual, group, couples and family therapy;
Screenings for Autism, ADHD, Learning Disabilities, and other Neurodiversities;
Psychological, Neuropsychological, and Educational Testing with Diagnosis and Treatment/Intervention Recommendations;
Diagnosis and Treatment Planning;
Educational and Skills Training Workshops/Camps;
Special Education Consulting and Behavior Support;
Life Skills and Personal Development Coaching; and
Executive Function Coaching.
Treatment is available in-person and via telehealth. (Telehealth services are provided when deemed clinically appropriate. Some clients may not be good candidates for telehealth. This will be discussed between the client and clinician during the intake assessment process.)
Our psychologists have the Authority to Practice Interjurisdictional Telepsychology (APIT).
We are in-network with Anthem, CareFirst/Blue Cross Blue Shield, and United/Optum. We are out of network with other insurance plans but happy to provide receipts for any out of network benefits your plan may reimburse directly to you.
We do not accept Medicare or Medicaid.
Before we decide to establish a professional relationship, an intake assessment session is conducted to learn more about your concerns and to determine if working together will be a good fit. You can request a particular clinician or we will assign you to a provider with relevant expertise and experience.
We look forward to determining how we might be able to help!
