What We Provide
At The Stixrud Group, our team of expert doctors is dedicated to not only providing comprehensive evaluations but also to sharing knowledge and fostering understanding. We are approved by the American Psychological Association to provide continuing education credits for psychologists. As such, we are proud to offer lectures, trainings, and talks on a wide array of topics, including ADHD, learning disabilities, autism spectrum disorders, protecting brain health, and more. Our specialists bring their extensive experience and the latest research to each presentation, aiming to educate and empower parents, educators, healthcare professionals, and more. Whether you’re seeking to deepen your understanding or looking for practical strategies, our talks are designed to provide valuable insights and tools to support those with diverse learning and developmental profiles. While nearly all of our esteemed doctors engage in these educational activities, Dr. William R. Stixrud and Dr. Donna Henderson are particularly active, offering such on a very regular basis.
