About
Hi! My name is Alexandra and I am so happy you're here. I’m a clinical psychologist who specializes in assessment and diagnostic evaluation. I’ve always enjoyed the process of figuring out how the different pieces of someone’s experiences fit together. Autism evaluations can be an important step toward understanding yourself, and I try to make that process thoughtful, straightforward, and comfortable. I want you to come away with a better understanding of yourself and how you experience the world.
I’ve always been interested in understanding how people think, process information, and experience the world differently. My work in psychological assessment has naturally led me toward working with autistic and neurodivergent individuals, particularly because so many people reach adulthood with questions about why certain things have felt easier or harder for them than they seem to be for others. I enjoy helping people connect those dots and develop a more complete understanding of themselves.
I believe an affirming approach starts with recognizing that there is no single way to think, communicate, learn, or experience the world. During an evaluation, I look not only at areas of difficulty, but also at the strengths, interests, and ways of thinking that make each person unique. I approach the assessment with curiosity and respect, without trying to fit someone into a predetermined picture of what autism should look like. My goal is to help each person feel understood and to provide a perspective that recognizes both their challenges and their strengths.
