Client testimonials

“Dr. Moersch was so profoundly helpful in getting to the bottom of what was happening with our son. She approached the situation with empathy and care, and in doing so, gained our son’s trust and helped us get an accurate diagnosis, which ultimately changed his life. We cannot recommend her more.”

Neuropsychological Assesment

"It was an incredibly helpful and hopeful meeting. We can't thank you enough for your thoughtful approach to working with our son. You are extraordinarily good at what you do and I feel very lucky to have found you."

-Parent

Neuropsychological Assesment

"Working with Dr. Moersch was great. My son was really nervous about testing, but she made him feel really comfortable. He ended up enjoying the process. When Dr. Moersch explained the results, she was clear and understandable to us parents, as well as to our son. She was caring, helpful and did a great job. I would highly recommend her."

-Parent

Neuropsychological Assesment

"We turned to Dr Moersch when looking for a comprehensive assessment of our son with ADHD. Dr Moersch was effective, insightful, empathetic and, most importantly, went above and beyond in providing the very best care and diagnostic outcomes. We highly recommend Dr Moersch, especially if you are looking for someone to marry scientific expertise with a deep understanding of your child's needs. Dr Moersch provides added compassion and humanity, and is a pleasure to work with."

-Parent

Neuropsychological Assesment

“Dr. Moersch’s assessment of our son has been regarded as 'the most thorough report ever seen' by our Pediatric Psychologist and School Psychologist. Her patience and professionalism, combined with her total commitment to aiding our son's success however possible (long after the assessment was complete) has been tremendous and invaluable. In short, Dr. Moersch has given our son the understanding, self confidence and hope he needed to thrive.”

-Parent

Neuropsychological Assesment

"We cannot recommend Dr. Moersch more highly.  She worked with our 6th grade daughter who had been assessed years earlier and whose dyslexia diagnosis was not detected.  Dr. Moersch has such a gentle touch with children while she assessed and tests them.  She is incredibly thorough and delved deep to uncover our child’s diagnosis.  In addition, she clearly explains her approach, results and recommendations. I highly recommend her and will follow up with her as our daughter continues with her education."

School Observation

Icon 05Icon 06

For young children, or if there are questions about behaviors or social interactions, it may be helpful for the neuropsychologist to observe them in the school setting. Please discuss this with the neuropsychologist as soon as possible if you are interested in this option so this can take place before the assessment.

What Makes Us Stand Out

Comprehensive

We offer comprehensive neuropsychological assessments, working closely with clients, parents, and providers to obtain a holistic understanding of our clients and how to best intervene.

Customized

We want our clients to be informed with an accurate and clear understanding of how they can leverage their strengths to accommodate areas of challenge. This paves the way for implementing our tailored recommendations.

Evidence-Based

We use peer-reviewed data when making our decisions. As neuropsychologists, we are familiar with the scientific literature and implement best practices to help our clients thrive at home, school, and in the community.
