Neurodivergent Forensic Assessment

Autism and ADHD change how a person presents in an evaluation, an interview, and a courtroom. Most forensic experts are not trained to see it.

This is the intersection Dr. Campbell is built for. She is a neuropsychologist, a Diplomate in School Neuropsychology (American Board of School Neuropsychology), and a Board Certified Behavior Analyst, whose clinical practice centers on autism, ADHD, and neurodevelopmental assessment across the lifespan — and she brings that fluency into forensic work, where it is rare.

In any of the matters listed on this site — custody, dependency, risk, diversion, capacity, employment — a neurodivergent profile can be misread as evasiveness, rigidity, or indifference by an evaluator who lacks assessment depth in this population. Dr. Campbell's evaluations distinguish neurodevelopmental presentation from psychopathology, apply instruments validated for the question at hand, and explain the difference to the court in plain, defensible language.

Psychoeducational and learning-disability evaluations are also available where educational and legal decision-making intersect.
