Wiest Neuropsychology
About Us
Welcome to our Office
​
Wiest Neuropsychology specializes in using evidence-based practices for the assessment and treatment of child, adolescent, and young adult neurodevelopmental disorders such as attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorders (ASD), and learning disabilities (e.g., dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia).
We also offer customized psychotherapy for people of all ages for a variety of mental health challenges. Therapy has been shown to have benefits such as better relationships, solutions to specific problems, and significant reductions in feelings of distress. The therapist will assist clients in achieving their goals by using an eclectic set of interventions such as cognitive behavioral, person-centered, solution focused, narrative, hypnosis, and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) therapies. We offer therapy for individuals, couples, and families.
Our team members have extensive experience and are licensed psychologists, educational psychologists, or special education teachers. Moreover, several of our members have National Board Certifications, including clinical psychology, school psychology, school neuropsychology, and family therapy.
