Introduction
My name is Dr. Alyssa Kerrigan, and I am a postdoctoral school psychologist. I have had the pleasure of working with toddlers to young adults. I provide supportive counseling and evidence-based interventions for school aged-children/teens and enjoy collaborating with parents through positive techniques and strategies that help them to better understand challenging behavior. I also work to help young adults achieve their goals as they move through a transitional period in their lives. I conduct psychological assessments and evaluations for concerns such as ADHD, Developmental Delays, Learning Disabilities, Giftedness, and autism spectrum disorder. My greatest satisfaction comes from helping my clients build on their strengths, step out with confidence, and gain control of their lives through the goals and strategies we collaborate on together.
