Scope of Practice

Litigation Services

• Consultation with counsel

• Expert reports and declarations

• Deposition and trial testimony

My testimony translates psychological research into clear, evidence-based explanations to assist triers of fact in understanding the potential functional and long-term implications of non-visible psychological conditions, where supported by the available evidence and the record. My opinions are independent, objective, and grounded in the scientific literature, regardless of which party retains me.

Additional Services
