A notable area of focus is adolescent therapy. The practice recognizes that teenagers can benefit from psychotherapy in much the same way adults do, and treatment for teens is provided by qualified licensed psychologists. That orientation suggests a thoughtful, age-attuned approach: one that takes adolescent emotional and developmental concerns seriously rather than treating them as a lesser version of adult care. Assessment is another important part of the practice.

The psychology team provides gifted and IQ testing as well as evaluations related to ADHD and learning disabilities or learning disorders. Psychoeducational testing is also available for ADHD and specific learning disorders, supporting a clearer understanding of how attention, cognition, and learning patterns may be affecting academic performance and day-to-day functioning. Together, these services describe a practice built around both insight and clarity: therapy to support emotional wellbeing, and specialized testing to help identify strengths, challenges, and appropriate next steps.

In that balance between treatment and evaluation, Dr. Elsa M. Orlandini’s practice addresses the needs of adolescents and others who require careful psychological assessment with professional, licensed care.
