Psychological Testing & Therapy - Bay Area
Psychological Testing
Whether a child is inattentive, anxious, sad or struggling to learn in school, parents can feel unsure of the best ways to provide support. Behavior at home may be overwhelming, and it can be challenging to get needed help at school. Through psychological testing, we help parents to better understand the issues and make an effective intervention plan. We can explain the educational system and support parents during school meetings. Our clinic is child-friendly, and our reports are parent-friendly.
Child, Adolescent and Adult Psychotherapy
Children, adolescents and adults may need a compassionate and knowledgeable person to help them to recognize their emotions, express them in a healthy way and adapt to challenges in their lives. At The Pratt Center, we provide psychotherapy to individuals, couples and families. Psychotherapy can improve communication skills and develop more effective emotional coping strategies.
We have six child psychologists and two adult psychotherapists in our clinic.
