Rebecca Wald, Ph.D.

Psychological Services That Fit Your Family.

I’m Dr. Rebecca Wald, a licensed psychologist in Maryland. I provide collaborative assessments and mental health treatment for children, teens, and adults. My promise to you is that I’ll meet you where you are, without judgment. Together, we’ll figure out what’s going on and how to get you where you want to be.

I offer flexible, customized evaluations for autism, ADHD, dyslexia, learning disabilities, processing speed problems, and other learning issues. If you’ve been told that you need a neuropsychological assessment, a psychoeducational assessment, or psychological testing, you’re in the right place! I also offer therapy for anxiety, depression, autism, OCD, and other issues.

I have special expertise in providing assessments for homeschoolers and children in other alternative education settings. Find out more about that here.

I offer scaled-down, lower-cost adult autism and adult ADHD evaluations for people who are looking for self-understanding and practical suggestions, rather than formal accommodations for higher education or high-stakes testing. 

I am neurodiversity-affirming, which – put simply – means that I don’t believe that there is only one “good” kind of brain. I won’t minimize your struggles, but I will also emphasize your strengths. Together, we’ll find ways for your unique brain to flourish – we won’t try to mold you into something you’re not.

I am comfortable with and supportive of a wide range of parenting and educational styles as well as a wide range of ways that adults can live their lives. I’ll work with you to find strategies that fit with your family’s values and that help all family members thrive.
