Psych Evaluations done right! Interview w/ Dr. Jessica McCarthy

This week on The Neurodivergent Report, we’re joined by licensed clinical psychologist, school psych, and ADHD mom Dr. Jessica McCarthy. As someone in the midst of autism evaluations for my toddler, I really valued this conversation.Curious what else is inside:

Why so many kids (and adults!) are missed by the current diagnostic systemsHow to spot red flags during the evaluation process & what questions parents can ask insteadThe confusing mish-mash of ADHD, autism, dyslexia, and anxiety—and why it matters to get to the heart of a problemSecret plans to meet up in NYC!

However you are able to engage, thank you for being here!With love, Sarah 💜
