Biography 

Kevin received his Bachelors of Arts degree in Psychology from St. Johns University and is Masters of Arts degree also in Psychology from CUNY Queens College. While at Queens College he had an overall focus on neuropsychology and assessments as well as statistical methods and interpretation. After Queens College, Kevin took a position conducting and assisting into the research of various therapies for children on the autism spectrum. He administered countless evaluations into the efficacy of such therapies as neurofeedback for children with autism and three of his studies he was involved in have made it to publication. Kevin then took a clinical position evaluating children and adults of all ages for diagnoses of autism, ADHD, learning disabilities, anxiety, depression, memory disorder, and traumatic brain injuries. He has 10+ years experience administering intellectual assessments, autism evaluations, academic achievement assessments, ADHD evaluations, personality assessments, memory assessments and psychoeducational evaluations. He is fully trained and up to date on all the latest measures and batteries.      

I strive to make the evaluation process as easy as possible for both children and adults. I take great care in making sure every client is as comfortable and at ease as possible. For children I try make the evaluation feel less like they are in school, by taking multiple short breaks during the assessment, talking with them about their interests and hobbies, and monitoring for any signs of testing fatigue throughout the evaluation. I am always willing and available to spend time with parents explaining the evaluation process, what each tests measures, and how useful this information can be for their child.  For adults, I take a very similar approach but focus more on how the results of these evaluations can be important to their family life, careers, and interpersonal relationships.
