Headshot of Dr. Rachel Steinberg of NeuroSpark Health, specializing in adult autism, ADHD, and AuDHD assessments in California.
Hi, I’m Rachel. I’m a licensed clinical psychologist based in the SF Bay Area. I am a late-diagnosed neurodivergent woman who grew up in a family full of other neurodivergent individuals. Never formally assessed as a child, I first self-diagnosed and then decided to pursue a formal diagnosis. I found the process of formal diagnosis to be a validating, affirming, and cathartic experience. As a psychologist, I want to provide other individuals with the opportunity I had in being able to explore this part of themselves.I am excited and honored to be on this journey with you. My hope is to support you as you take this step towards formal assessment and self-discovery. I truly believe that knowledge brings more self-compassion.
