Specializing in cognitive, neurodevelopmental, and neuropsychological assessments, Dr. Gray uses evidence-based, gold-standard evaluations to assess for ADHD, autism, learning differences, and other medical conditions and treatments.

Dr. Gray’s strengths-based, therapeutic approach to assessment helps families gain integrated and actionable insights. She focuses on nurturing self-compassion and fostering a shared understanding of neurodiversity to support positive well-being in children, teens, and adults.
In addition to assessment, Dr. Gray maintains a small therapy caseload, offering support for emotional, behavioral, and adjustment issues, learning differences (e.g., dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia), feeding and sleeping difficulties, habit disorders, developmental delays, and anxiety disorders (including selective mutism and OCD). Her therapeutic approach integrates a biopsychosocial model to support emotional growth and development.
Dr. Gray is also a dedicated clinical trainer for post-master’s and post-doctoral students, providing guidance in pediatric evaluation and therapy.
Outside of her professional life, Dr. Gray enjoys spending time with her husband and 9-year-old, traveling and learning from diverse cultures around the world. -
