Amanda Tan, PHD

Dr. Amanda Tan is a licensed clinical psychologist. She provides psychological assessments for children and adults across the lifespan, and has done so in both hospital and private practice settings.

She is experienced in thorough developmental clinical interviewing and a wide variety of assessment tools for cognitive, adaptive, emotional and personality functioning for children, adolescents, and adults. She is competent in diagnosing a range of psychopathology and has particular specialty areas in diagnosing Autism Spectrum Disorders and developmental disabilities.

As a mother, she understands that children, no matter how old, can face many challenges in learning or interacting with others. She actively collaborates with a child and their family or caregivers in creating an assessment plan tailored to a child’s specific needs. 

As an Asian female immigrant, she is sensitive to the interactions between systemic problems and the individual experiences of each client. When you work with her, you can expect a gentle but direct approach to exploring difficult issues and she can provide recommendations across systems (e.g. family, school) to address varying individual needs.

What to expect: 

In a confidential and comfortable environment, children and their families participate in a thorough interview process to assess and evaluate the nature of the present concerns. A flexible testing battery (the instruments used for evaluation) is individualized for each child’s unique background and the goals of the assessment. At the conclusion of the evaluation, a feedback session is held with the parents and child to discuss information gathered during testing, overall impressions, and recommendations going forward. A comprehensive written report is also provided for each family.

Note:

Dr. Tan does not provide psychotherapy in our clinic, she provide psychological testing services only.

Do you accept insurance?

Clients with insurance from Kaiser Permanente require an external referral from Kaiser. Please contact your Kaiser clinic for processing. If you do not have the referral, Kaiser will not reimburse your fees. If you have an older referral, we advise you to call the clinic to confirm it is still valid.

Mind and Body Garden Psychology is not currently in-network with other insurance providers for assessment services. Payments are out-of-pocket to be paid directly to our clinic, but we can provide a superbill to help you with seeking reimbursement from insurance providers. If you intend to seek insurance reimbursement, please contact your insurance provider to clarify your insurance benefits/reimbursement for out-of-network services. Insurance companies may sometimes require that you seek pre-authorization.
