Krista M. Marchman, PhD

Dr. Krista M. Marchman, PhD specializes in psychological, psychoeducational and neurodevelopmental evaluations and interventions for children, adolescents, young adults and their families. She evaluates a broad range of emotional, behavioral, developmental, cognitive and adjustment problems such as ADHD, Childhood Anxiety Disorders, Dysregulated Mood Disorders, Learning Disabilities and Developmental Delay and Autism Spectrum Disorders, including Adult Autism Spectrum Disorder. Dr. Marchman's approach is based on identifying the interrelations of neurodevelopment constructs, including attention and executive functions, memory, auditory/visual processing, language, motor functions, and higher order thinking skills. She places special emphasis on how these constructs impact social, emotional and behavioral functioning and how breakdowns in these functions impact learning. Dr. Marchman's practice is recognized as a leader in testing and treating adolescent mental health issues, and she has a particular interest in helping women with autism, who often present differently and may be under-diagnosed or misdiagnosed. She takes a multi-dimensional approach to evaluation, identifying all factors that strengthen or weaken a child's social, emotional and behavioral development and learning capacity, and provides personalized service to help children overcome obstacles and fulfill their potential.
