Dr. Araujo later completed a 2- year post-doctoral joint fellowship in the Neuropsychology Program at Mary Bridge Children's Hospital and the University of Washington Autism Center. She has been an attending psychologist in numerous clinics and hospital settings.

Clinical Services

Comprehensive, Diagnostic and Gifted Evaluations

Comprehensive assessment of children through young adults (2-25 years) to identify neurodevelopmental and learning disorders or for assessment of medical conditions with cognitive implications (TBI, sports-related concussions, or other conditions.) Such evaluations can also be helpful for students requiring accommodations, clarification of a prior evaluation, treatment planning and assessing cognitive change over time.

Educational Consultation & Treatment Planning

Educational consultation can include assessment, review of records, school observation and/or presenting evaluation findings at school meetings. Consultation can guide educational placement, school services and interventions. 

Individual Therapy

Dr. Araujo uses therapy approaches adapted for the individual and drawn from evidence -based strategies. Approaches include Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Acceptance-Committment Therapy (ACT). 

Gifted or Educational Assessments

 Dr. Araujo also conducts IQ testing for eligibility into early entrance, gifted schools and advanced learning programs.

Specialized services for adolescents & adults

Hang Time ℠ / Social Skill Groups

Group therapy is a special format in which individuals can observe and practice social communication skills among age-level peers. Dr. Araujo has training and experience in implementing evidence -based curriculums  (e.g. PEERS ®  for Young Adults, Facing Your Fears ®) as well as other social skill groups.

Autism Spectrum Disorder Evaluation for Adults

It is not unusual for high functioning individuals with Autism to be diagnosed later in life, however that is not because symptoms suddenly developed. A psychological evaluation will focus on critical areas of functioning: work/occupational, executive functioning, adaptive skills and relationships to help determine appropriate recommendations. This can include  assessment of other or co-occuring neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., ADHD) or psychiatric conditions (e.g., anxiety or mood disorders.)

Transition Assessment

Transition Assessment

The high school years  are a critical time for post secondary planning for individuals with learning disabilites or autism spectrum disorders. Brief or more comprehensive assessment can support educational planning, as well as identifying accommodations for work or college settings.
