Dr. Kathryn Robb graduated from The Philadelphia College of Osteopathic Medicine in 2015 with a doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology. During her time there, she benefitted from incredible opportunities to train at some of New York City's premier pediatric psychology centers, including NYU Child Study Center, Lenox Hill Center for Attention and Learning, and Mount Sinai Hospital.


Dr. Robb completed her post-doctoral fellowship in a small private practice, where she learned the value of conducting evaluations in patients' homes, away from a traditional clinical setting. Through this process, she developed a formidable repertoire of “outside-the-box” skills for evaluating patients, with a strong emphasis on personalization of the testing experience. Flexibility is paramount when working with children, and Dr. Robb believes that the evaluation process should be adapted to meet each child's individual needs, strengths, and circumstances.


Dr. Robb provides comprehensive psychological and neuropsychological evaluations for children, adolescents, and young adults presenting with a wide range of developmental, academic, neurological, behavioral, and emotional concerns. Her areas of clinical expertise include the evaluation of ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, specific learning disorders, executive functioning difficulties, intellectual and developmental differences, language and communication disorders, and the cognitive and emotional effects of neurological conditions, including traumatic brain injury and other acquired neurological conditions. She also has extensive experience evaluating complex presentations in which multiple factors, including attention, learning, language, memory, executive functioning, anxiety, and emotional regulation, interact to affect a child's ability to function at home, at school, and in the broader community. Her evaluations are designed not only to clarify diagnosis, but to identify a child's unique pattern of strengths and weaknesses and translate those findings into practical recommendations for educational programming, accommodations, treatment, rehabilitation, and long-term planning.


Along her journey, Dr. Robb has gained invaluable experience working closely with children and families from all walks of life and with a wide range of complex clinical presentations. She is deeply honored to have been connected to so many wonderful children and families and takes special care with every patient to honor their unique circumstances. Dr. Robb welcomes each family with compassion and prioritizes upholding the highest standard of individualized care. She believes that every child deserves to be understood not simply in terms of a diagnosis or test score, but as a whole person with unique strengths, challenges, and potential.
