We specialize in comprehensive psychological evaluations and assessments for adult ADHD, providing clients with a thorough understanding of symptoms that may impact physical and mental health. Our evaluations are designed to offer clear insights into each client’s unique strengths and challenges, offering tailored recommendations for effective management. Additionally, we conduct pre-bariatric surgery evaluations, assessing psychological readiness and identifying factors that may contribute to long-term success. By addressing both the psychological and behavioral aspects of weight, we support clients in achieving sustainable health goals and improved well-being.
Coping with weight and obesity-related struggles invariably involves a mental health aspect. No matter what you want for yourself, you are welcome here. In our work as Medical Health Psychologists, we’ve walked alongside many clients contemplating bariatric surgery, and we intentionally work to understand your unique challenges in our practice.
Coping with weight/obesity throughout one's life invariably takes a toll on mental health. Treatment with bariatric surgery can, too. In our pre-surgical evaluations, we help you get prepared for this life changing, and sometimes life-saving, intervention by identifying potential risk factors for weight regain after surgery – such as emotional eating triggers, stressors, and lifestyle challenges – to support sustainable, long-term health and wellbeing. And, long after your surgery, if you experience unexpected changes in your mental health or body image, eating patterns, or relationships, we are prepared to help you navigate these issues over time.
We can’t wait to welcome you into a compassionate space that is just for you.
We invite you to schedule a complimentary 15-minute evaluation consultation with us where we will discuss your upcoming appointment, including what to expect and how we can help.
Once your appointment is scheduled, we will send you a questionnaire, consent form, standard privacy agreements to complete online via our HIPAA-compliant platform. These help us make the most of our time together, so please complete them prior to your appointment.
Your appointment is not a test to be passed, but instead it is an opportunity for you to learn more about yourself, to enhance your education about your condition, and to prepare for your life ahead. We are here to make recommendations that will ensure you are supported before and after surgery.
No surprises – your provider will openly discuss their findings with you during your evaluation. Following your appointment, your provider will write a brief report with their recommendations and share it directly with your referring provider, as appropriate.
Our commitment to your well-being extends beyond initial assessments or treatment plans. We are available to provide long-term support as you navigate ongoing changes and challenges, whether related to managing ADHD symptoms, adjusting after bariatric surgery, or working through life transitions. Through personalized follow-ups, we’re here to help you build sustainable habits, develop effective coping strategies, and address shifts in identity, self-image, and relationships over time. Our team is dedicated to offering compassionate, continuous care to support your growth and long-term success.
