About

Hello! My name is Dr. Cori Ann Stepek. I am currently licensed and live in the beautiful state of Colorado. I am also authorized to practice telepsychology across participating PSYPACT states. My clinical background includes conducting comprehensive evaluations across the lifespan, with extensive experience in working with neurodiverse children, adolescents, and adults. My evaluation expertise encompasses Neurodevelopmental Disorders, including Autism Spectrum Disorder, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Learning Disorders, and Intellectual Developmental Disorder. I also have significant experience in the assessment of co-occurring conditions such as Anxiety Disorders and Depression and Mood Disorders. Supporting you on your journey toward greater self-understanding and well-being is something I care deeply about. As your clinician, I want you to feel safe, truly heard, and understood every step of the way. I recognize that your experiences and needs are unique, and I am committed to providing care that is tailored specifically to you.

Education & Licensure
Ph.D. in Psychology from Colorado State University (Dissertation: ADHD in Adults); Ed.S. in School Psychology from University of Northern Colorado; Principal Licensure from Colorado State University
Treatment Approach
What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

My motivation for working with neurodivergent adults is rooted in a profound appreciation for the diversity of human minds and a commitment to creating environments where individuals feel genuinely seen and respected. I am continually inspired by the creativity, adaptability, and insight that neurodivergent adults bring to their lives and communities.

How do you bring a strengths-based, affirming approach to your client work?

In my work with neurodivergent adults, I emphasize a collaborative and person-centered process that highlights each individual's inherent capabilities and fosters genuine self-expression. By engaging in active listening and validating each person's lived experience, I strive to create an environment where clients feel respected and understood. My evaluation process is designed to help clients gain insight into their neurodivergent characteristics, identify personal strengths, and develop practical strategies for self-advocacy. Through this supportive framework, I aim to empower individuals to access meaningful resources and confidently pursue their personal aspirations.
