Find Adult Autism Care Near You

I am a Chicago-based psychologist whose work supports individuals and families living with disability. My approach to psychological assessment integrates our clinical framework and diagnostic manual with each client’s story. My goal is that you recognize yourself in the clinical report, and that our clinical framework and diagnostic language provide insight with real-world impact.

Welcome! I am Dr. Melissa Stallard, I am a clinical psychologist licensed in California. Psychological evaluation is often one brief point within a person’s broader treatment journey; however brief, assessment can be a powerful and meaningful resource. I approach evaluations with the goal of understanding not only the presenting concerns, but the individual as a complete person. I hope to be a part of your process in clarifying diagnoses and guiding you towards meaningful support in your daily life.

Hello and welcome. I’m so glad you’re here. My name is Taylor Gold, and I live in Havre de Grace, Maryland. I am a licensed clinical social worker in Maryland, with a background in residential treatment, outpatient psychiatry, crisis intervention, family systems work, and complex case management.As a therapist, I’m driven by the belief that people deserve care that is compassionate, thoughtful, and genuinely individualized. I work to create a space where clients feel safe enough to be themselves, understood without judgment, and supported as they move through life’s challenges. My hope is to build a trusting relationship where we can make sense of what feels hard, recognize what is already strong, and work toward meaningful growth together.I feel especially drawn to working with autistic and neurodivergent clients because I deeply value the idea that there is no one “right” way to think, feel, communicate, or move through the world. I believe neurodivergence is not something to be reduced to a list of deficits but a meaningful part of a person’s identity and lived experience. What inspires me about this work is the opportunity to help create a space where clients feel less pressure to mask, explain, or fit themselves into someone else’s expectations.
