My name is Dr. Lavinsky. I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology at West Chester University, and my Masters and Doctorate (PsyD) in Clinical Psychology at Immaculata University. I previously completed externships and trainings at CHOP, St. Christopher's Hospital for Childre, the Penn Autism Center, and TEAMCARE in Lancaster, PA. I am a licensed psychologist specializing in comprehensive psychological evaluations for autism and other neurodevelopmental conditions across the lifespan. I work with children, adolescents, and adults, providing thorough, evidence-based assessments that help clarify diagnoses, guide treatment planning, and support access to appropriate services and accommodations.
My approach is collaborative, respectful, and individualized. I strive to create a comfortable and affirming evaluation process for each person I work with, recognizing the unique strengths, challenges, and identities that shape their experiences. I have particular expertise in identifying autism presentations that may be more subtle or historically underrecognized, including in women, gender-diverse individuals, and adults seeking evaluation later in life.
