I currently live in Hawaiʻi and am licensed in Florida. Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of working with people from a wide range of backgrounds and helping them navigate concerns related to trauma, anxiety, relationships, self-worth, and major life changes.I believe psychologists should provide a space where you can show up as your whole self—without judgment and without having to pretend that everything is okay. My approach is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I see my role as walking alongside you, helping you better understand yourself, recognize your strengths, and develop the insight needed to create meaningful change.

Hello! I’m Dr. Laura Jansons, a licensed clinical psychologist and board-certified clinical neuropsychologist with more than 30 years of experience helping people better understand how their brains work and why they experience the world the way they do.

‍

For many adults, considering an autism evaluation comes after years, sometimes decades, of feeling different, working hard to fit in, or wondering why certain social, sensory, or everyday experiences seem to require more effort than they do for other people. I approach assessment with curiosity rather than assumptions. My goal is to provide a comfortable, respectful space where you can talk openly about your experiences and where we can put the pieces together collaboratively.

‍

I believe a good evaluation should do more than answer the question, “Am I autistic?” It should help you understand your unique pattern of strengths, challenges, coping strategies, and experiences. My goal is for you to leave the evaluation with greater clarity, a better understanding of yourself, and information that is genuinely useful in your everyday life.

Hi, I’m Dr. Z, a licensed clinical psychologist in California. I’m naturally curious about people and have always been fascinated by the different experiences, strengths, and characteristics that make each of us who we are. One of my favorite parts of being a psychologist is helping people answer questions they may have had about themselves for years and better understand why certain obstacles can feel particularly difficult to overcome—learning the “why” behind why am I like this?

‍

Often, the ways we have learned to think, feel, and respond make sense when we understand the experiences that shaped them. Those same experiences can also be sources of resilience, strength, and tremendous growth.

‍

I believe the assessment process should feel collaborative, comfortable, and human. My goal is for you to leave with a deeper understanding of yourself, including the strengths you may not have recognized along the way.

‍

Outside of psychology, I’m a creative person at heart. I enjoy writing children’s books and making pottery. Creativity and curiosity are important parts of my life, and I bring both into the way I approach my work.
