Intro
Hi, I’m Daphne (she/her), a licensed clinical psychologist based in Chicago, Illinois, with nearly 30 years of experience. Our practice specializes in adult autism assessments, and I bring additional expertise in ADHD, anxiety, dyslexia, and other learning differences that deepen my understanding and evaluation of neurodivergent adults.Using a neurodiversity-affirming, strength-based approach, I provide respectful, individualized autism and neurodivergence assessments that help you better understand your unique profile and move forward with clarity and confidence. I work with clients across Illinois and the greater Chicago area.
I focus on autism evaluations for adults because I’ve seen how often people are misunderstood, misdiagnosed, or dismissed—especially when their experiences don’t fit narrow definitions. Many of my clients describe years feeling out of sync without knowing why.As someone who immigrated from Haiti at a young age, I bring both personal and professional insight into how culture, language, and identity influence how we’re seen—and how we see ourselves. I’m deeply attuned to the many ways people feel “othered,” whether due to race, gender, neurodivergence, or simply being wired differently in a world that often expects people to fit into narrow boxes.
I approach every assessment with care, curiosity, and respect. I take the time to understand how you think, relate, and make sense of the world. My goal is to help you recognize your strengths, understand your unique patterns, and access the tools you need to move forward with confidence.I create space for the full story—especially for those who have spent a lifetime feeling overlooked or misunderstood.
