"Bridging Neuropsychology, Cultures & Schools"
Dr. Myeong Jin Kim is a bilingual licensed psychologist and certified school psychologist offering comprehensive evaluations and evidence-based psychotherapy for children, adolescents, and adults — in both English and Korean.
Neuropsychological Evaluations
Dr. Kim's evaluations go beyond diagnosis. Through careful, culturally sensitive assessment, she uncovers each client's unique neuropsychological profile — identifying learning differences such as dyslexia and dyscalculia, ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, executive functioning challenges, and twice-exceptional (2e) profiles. Every evaluation is designed not just to answer what, but to illuminate why — and to translate findings into clear, actionable guidance for families, schools, and providers.
School Psychology & Special Education Advocacy
With extensive experience as a school psychologist within the New York City public school system, Dr. Kim brings an insider's understanding of special education law, policy, and practice. She is deeply familiar with the IEP process, Section 504 plans, the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), and the specific regulations governing NYC Department of Education services. This expertise allows her to serve as a powerful bridge between families and schools — helping parents understand their rights, interpret evaluation results, and advocate effectively for the services and supports their children deserve.
Psychotherapy & Support
Dr. Kim provides compassionate individual, couple, and family therapy for anxiety, mood concerns, trauma, and social challenges. With deep expertise in the immigrant experience, she offers a uniquely affirming space for Korean-speaking families navigating the academic, emotional, and cultural demands of life in the United States.
