Evidence-Based Therapy and Assessment for Children, Teens, and Young Adults
As a licensed Clinical Psychologist, Dr. Dugoni partners with your family to provide personalized, evidence-based therapy and assessment that maximizes your child’s strengths and builds skills to improve mental health.
Comprehensive Assessments
For students with learning, attention, social, or behavior difficulties, an assessment helps us understand why a child is experiencing challenges and offers a concrete plan for how to support them in school and at home. Assessments provide parents and schools with a comprehensive profile of your child and written individualized recommendations that guide school accommodations and interventions.

Evidence-Based Psychotherapy
Is your child or teen struggling with big emotions, anxiety, social challenges, academic stress, or difficult life transitions? Therapy provides a safe, supportive space for them to learn practical skills to reach their goals, build confidence, and feel understood. Using evidence-based approaches, I help children and teens manage a variety of mental health concerns to improve overall well-being.
