Jordyn Abrahams, PhD

Neuropsychological Postdoctoral Fellow
Nationally Certified School Psychologist

I am thrilled to be joining Milestones Psychology as a Neuropsychology Post-Doctoral Fellow and to be working alongside a skilled team of clinicians to support the development of children of all ages through evidence-based assessments and treatment.

I have conducted psychoeducational and neuropsychological evaluations in both school and private practice settings and have developed expertise in assessing neurodevelopmental disorders. I recognize that parents and educators are necessary participants in the treatment and assessment process to ensure that children are able to overcome their challenges and reach their highest potential. Thus, fostering a strong family-school-community partnership is crucial to my work. Through the evaluation process, I seek to combine parent and teacher input with quantitative findings to identify appropriate social-emotional and academic support recommendations that are both effective and feasible for a family.

Over the course of my doctoral training, I have facilitated counseling groups with a focus on executive functioning, self-regulation, and social skills. I have also provided individual therapeutic services to children struggling with internalizing problems including anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. I utilize a holistic therapeutic approach, integrating components from evidence-based treatments like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and various theoretical orientations to meet each child’s individualized needs. My passion for helping children, clinical flexibility, and welcoming personality allows me to establish strong relationships with my clients and their families, making them feel supported throughout the therapeutic process.

I look forward to bringing my compassion and skillset to Milestones Psychology.
