About Dennise
I provide comprehensive neuropsychological assessments and evidenced-based psychotherapy for children, families, and young adults. My approach is collaborative and active, with emphasis on building a strong alliance, then working towards achieving desired goals. I operate within a systemic and multidisciplinary framework that includes parents and collaboration with educators/other providers when needed. This makes me an effective therapist & neuropsychologist at evaluating/working with youth that struggle with disruptive behaviors, emotional regulation difficulties, trauma, anxiety, mood difficulties, and academic challenges.
I also conduct neuropsychological evaluations to assess for neurodevelopmental disorders and co-morbid medical disorders as well as for Autism Spectrum Disorders and bilingual neuropsychological testing (Spanish). I've consulted on cases with complex profiles that have not responded to existing interventions and/or come from diverse/bilingual backgrounds
