✨ Welcome to our revamped psychological testing room at PsychologyWorks, PLLC! ✨
Designed with comfort, calm, and clarity in mind, this space is now home to our dedicated testing psychologists, Dr. Steele-Wren and Dr. Whiteside. Whether you’re seeking answers about ADHD, autism, learning differences, or more—this cozy corner of our private practice is where insight begins. 🧠🧩

We’ve been hesitant to say anything publicly because we’ve always been taught not to bring our own political views, etc. into our clinical work, however, this is no longer a political issue. Such discourse as said recently by the sitting secretary of health and human services, is wildly incorrect and damaging to the autism community. Thank you APA for making a stance. Neurodivergence is welcome and valued here and is not something to be “cured.”

We thought this chair looked like it would be comfy and soothing sensorily- it’s gotten high remarks from some of our younger clients since it arrived this afternoon! We’ve still got at least one other surprise for the new and improved waiting area to make it real legitimate 😁. We take your feedback seriously and “comfier furniture” was a popular suggestion from clients, so we’re making it happen with our little recent renovation!!

We apologize for the loud construction at the office today! We need another private therapist office for someone joining later in the fall to help with the demand, especially our growing requests for older child and adolescent services! We can’t wait to decorate the new office and redesign our new cozy waiting area with comfier furniture. When you arrive from now on, you will take a right down the hallway, to the end where the window is, and then you’ll see the waiting area on your left.
