Helping Every Child Be Understood, and Thrive as Themselves.
Warm, strengths-based educational psychology assessments, therapy, and support for children and families. We're here to help you understand how your child's brilliant mind works.
“Every child deserves to be understood, accepted, and celebrated.”
Accessibility & Accommodations
We want every family to feel welcome, both on our website and in our office. If anything on this site is hard to use, or if you or your child need accommodations for a visit, such as sensory adjustments, extra time, a quieter waiting experience, or written instead of phone communication, please contact us at admin@brainwavespsych.com or (650) 549-5015. We're always working to make our practice more accessible.
