Why Families Choose Us

What makes Atlanta Children's Center different?

Experienced Psychologists

Our psychologists bring decades of combined experience from Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, Marcus Autism Center, Emory University School of Medicine, and other leading children's hospitals.

Honest Guidance From the Start

Every family begins with a consultation, and we'll tell you honestly whether an evaluation, therapy, or a parent consultation is the right next step.

Evidence-Based Care

We use approaches that are well supported by research, while always keeping your individual child at the center. Our evaluations follow best-practice guidelines, and therapy may include cognitive behavioral therapy, behavioral strategies, and parent training, thoughtfully tailored to your child and family.

Parents Are Part of the Work

You know your child best. Parents are partners from the first conversation, through evaluation feedback and in therapy, so what we learn and practice carries over at home.

We Work With Your Child's Team

With your permission, we communicate with your child's pediatrician and other medical providers. School observations are available on request.

Clear Answers and a Path Forward

Whether through an evaluation, therapy, or a parent consultation, you leave with a clear understanding and practical next steps.

We are parents, too. We know how important it is to feel that the person working with your child truly sees and understands them. We approach every child with the care we'd want for our own.

What to Expect

How it works.

  1. Start with a consultation

    Every service begins with a 75-minute consultation/intake appointment where we learn about your child's development, history, and your concerns.

  2. An individualized plan

    Together we decide on the right evaluation, treatment, or consultation plan for your child and family.

  3. Answers, support, and a clear plan

    You leave with a real understanding of your child and practical next steps.

Sometimes the first step isn't testing.

Many parents aren't sure whether their child needs an evaluation, therapy, parenting support, academic intervention, a medication consultation, or something else entirely. That's okay.

Our consultation is designed to help you sort through it and determine what will be most useful for your child.

We get to know your child and help you understand the whole picture.

Maybe your child seems like a different kid at home than in the classroom. Or maybe the concerns overlap: learning, attention, development, emotions, and behavior all tangled together.

That's exactly where a careful, experienced look helps. Our goal is to understand not only what your child is struggling with, but why, and what they need to thrive.
