Dr. De Santis offers neuropsychological assessment services for children, teens, and young adults and therapy services.
Dr. De Santis completed her undergraduate studies at New York University where she graduated summa cum laude with a double major in Psychology and Philosophy. After gaining work experience, Dr. De Santis returned to her studies and completed her PhD in Clinical Psychology.

For more than a decade, Dr. De Santis shared time between working in NYC hospitals and offering her neuropsychological assessment and therapy services in private practice.
