Small Brooklyn Psychology is a private practice—founded by Mandi White-Ajmani, PhD—that provides assessment and evidence-based therapy for people of all ages. Our neuropsychological assessment service offers high-quality, thorough, practicable assessment for all ages, but we have special expertise in assessment of kids, from babies through young adults. Many parents seeking assessment for their children are worried, confused, and overwhelmed, so we do our best to provide an experience that is warm, patient, highly personalized, and truly useful. We also operate from best practices in clinical psychology and neuropsychology, using methods that are both grounded in research and feasible in the real world.

Small Brooklyn Psychology meets the needs of these families right in their own borough. Our offices are housed in Industry City, an energetic campus full of food, events, and community spaces.
