About Us

Molly Cevasco, PhD
(She/her/ella)

Licensed Psychologist

As a bilingual psychologist, I provide services in English and Spanish. I care deeply about social justice, and strive to provide neurodiversity- and gender-affirming care. I have specialized training and interest in working with those who have experienced trauma and/ or have experienced the foster care system.

I provide comprehensive psychological evaluations and Independent Educational Evaluations with the goal of helping people find important answers and paths to move forward. I really enjoy helping kids, adults, and educators understand and appreciate the complexities that make each of us who we are. So often, evaluations use a deficits-based model to focus on what’s “wrong” with a person. My evaluations seek to recognize areas of difficulty without ignoring all the areas of strength. Don’t we all deserve to be seen as a whole person?
