Services By Type
Evaluations
Spectra and our center, Illumination Psychological Testing, provide first-time diagnoses, second opinions, and updated testing for ages 20 months through late adulthood. Our evaluations offer diagnostic impressions, strengths/weaknesses documentation, accommodations, recommendations, and personalized treatment planning tailored to individual and family needs.
Therapies
We offer services for children through late adulthood. Our therapists provide support using a variety of approaches and services. Tailored and evidence-based therapies, ensuring individualized support.
Group Therapies
Join our engaging and integrative therapy groups led by our multidisciplinary team. Please note, group sessions are not a substitute for individual therapy, and the goals are not personalized to each participant. Depending on the age and stage of the group, activities encompass playful interactions and meaningful conversations. We value the power of real-time feedback in a secure environment, making group sessions a valuable stand-alone service or a perfect complement to one-on-one therapy sessions.
Workshops & Series
We offer services for children through late adulthood. Our therapists provide support using a variety of approaches and services.
