SUPPORTING CHILDREN & FAMILIES IN THE Fort hunt/Alexandria, VA AREA
Natalie Collins,

Psychoeducational Assessment & Therapy for Children and Adolescents
Helping families understand their child's strengths, challenges, and needs through practical support at home, at school, and in therapy.

Understanding your child, Supporting Your Family
When your child is struggling, whether it's difficulty focusing in class, unexpected behavior changes, anxiety about school, or a learning challenge that doesn't quite have a name yet, it can be hard to know where to turn. You want answers, but you also want someone who sees your child as a whole person, not just a set of symptoms or scores. That's where I come in.
As a school psychologist, I bring specialized training in child development, learning, and behavior, and firsthand experience in educational settings, to every assessment and session.
I translate complex findings into practical recommendations that make sense for your child's specific needs, at school and at home. Because I understand how schools operate, I can help bridge the gap between home and school.
My approach is to work with families as a whole, in a supportive partnership with parents. You're not just handing your child off. I work with you throughout the process, so you understand what's happening and why.
Every child deserves to be understood. Together, we’ll create a thoughtful plan to support your child’s unique needs and help you feel more confident moving forward.

Comprehensive psychoeducational assessments allow a full picture of a child's strengths and needs, providing diagnostic clarification and targeted recommendations.

My approach to therapy includes a mix of play based, cognitive behavioral, and dialectical behavioral techniques. I also incorporate executive functioning coaching practices.
