About

Hello and welcome! I’m Dr. Gilberto Pagán, a licensed clinical psychologist based in South Carolina. I’m truly glad you’re here.

‍

Throughout my career as a seasoned clinician, I’ve had the privilege of providing psychological evaluations, guidance, and clinical care to people at every stage of life—from preschoolers and youth to adults and seniors. Over the years, my practice has consistently included conducting evaluations for autistic people at various stages of life.

‍

Today, in my work with Prosper Health, I provide neurodiversity-affirming Autism Spectrum Evaluations via telehealth in both English and Spanish. As an authorized PSYPACT provider, I am credentialed to practice telepsychology across participating states, allowing me to conduct evaluations for clients safely and legally from my South Carolina office. I view the assessment process not as a clinical test, but as a collaborative journey designed to offer you self-validation, deep clarity, and practical insights to help you navigate life with confidence.

Education & Licensure
PhD in Clinical Psychology from Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ; MS in Developmental Psychology, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ; Permanent Certificates in School Psychology, States of New York and New Jersey.
Treatment Approach
What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

Having evaluated autistic people across the lifespan throughout my career, what motivates me most is witnessing the profound impact an accurate, compassionate assessment has on a person's life—especially for adults who have waited years for answers.

‍

Many adults spend years—sometimes decades—searching for understanding about why they think, feel, and experience the world the way they do. Providing a clear, validating evaluation that honors your lived experience, demystifies past struggles, and offers a meaningful path forward is deeply fulfilling work.

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

What drives my practice is creating a warm, genuine, and safe environment where you feel fully seen, heard, and valued. I remain flexible regarding your personal needs, comfort, and pacing throughout our time together.

‍

By taking a reflective, non-judgmental approach, I view assessment as a true partnership. Together, we look beyond deficits to uncover your unique cognitive and emotional strengths—giving you actionable understanding, deep self-acceptance, and the clarity to move forward authentically.
