Emily Haygeman, PhD
Hi, I'm Dr. Emily Haygeman, Licensed Psychologist and Owner of Empower Psychological Services. Through a range of modalities- including individual therapy, family therapy, and psychological evaluation, I offer opportunities for client empowerment. You will notice I do not mention services aimed at "fixing" a problem or "improving" yourself. That is because I believe that each of my clients already has, within and around them, the tools they need in order to heal. Where I come in is to offer my knowledge of "what works" based on the scientific evidence, alongside my compassionate approach to children, teens, young adults, and families.
Who I Work With (not limited to): Neurodivergent and autistic individuals, children and teens dealing with anxiety and depression, those seeking diagnostic clarity through Psychological Evaluation.

Evidence Based +
Each assessment blends rigorous, evidence-based methods with the neurodiversity paradigm and compassionate care.
The Whole Story
The process is holistic, taking into account the individual’s history, personal strengths and challenges, not just their current symptoms.
Trusted Results
I’ve helped hundreds of clients who consistently report greater clarity, empowerment, and relief following their personal evaluation journey.
Many of us feel uncertain, confused, or overwhelmed about mental or emotional patterns and how to address them.
Everyone deserves to understand themselves or their child fully and receive the right guidance for their unique personalities.
Empower Psychological Services exists because I understand that seeking diagnostic clarity can feel overwhelming. That’s why I offer high-quality psychological evaluations designed to help tell your story, or your child’s story, in a clear and empowering way. Through these evaluations, we’ll identify your unique strengths and challenges, provide well-researched diagnostic clarity, and offer individualized, best-practice treatment recommendations.
Once the evaluation is complete, we’ll meet to present the results in a helpful, empowering manner. Don’t leave your or your child’s mental and emotional well-being to guesswork. Book an evaluation today and take the first step toward receiving understanding and support with confidence.
The Empowered Approach
1. Complete an individualized evaluation journey
Meet with Dr. Haygeman to complete interview, evaluation measures, and questionnaires in order to help us best understand your experiences and current presentation. Following evaluation, you will meet with Dr. Haygeman to ensure you fully understand the results, any diagnoses given, and recommendations.
2. Receive a comprehensive report with personalized recommendations.
Your report includes evaluation results, strengths and challenges, diagnosis (if present), and individualized recommendations for each of your environments (e.g. home, school, workplace, social, disability, etc).
3. Live your life with support and empowerment.
Research shows that when treatment is individualized to your unique presentation (neurotype, strengths, and challenges), it is more effective. Following evaluation, I will make any referrals and connections needed in support of your growth and empowerment.
