Rhonda Polakoff, PhD

I have over 25 years of experience performing psychological evaluations for children and families, including assessments for ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, behavioral issues, intellectual abilities, trauma, learning differences, and mood disorders. These evaluations provide clarity in diagnosis and treatment planning, assisting mental health professionals, medical personnel, educators, and treatment teams in improving clients' quality of life.

I enjoy travel and the arts, but my greatest treasure is quality time with my family, friends, and pets.

Dr. Polakoff specializes in ages 5-50
