Susan Heidal-Schiltz, LP, PsyD

Child & Adolescent Psychology

What I Do

My clinical interests include psychological assessment, FASD, ADHD, dyslexia, and neurodevelopmental differences, as well as trauma and resiliency, anxiety and depression.

I strive for a collaborative and strength-based approach, focusing on understanding each child’s neurodevelopmental strengths and challenges, relationships, resiliency, values and goals. I love celebrating successes and reinforcing the idea that we are always growing and discovering new strengths.

Why I Love My Work

I greatly enjoy working with children, adolescents and their parents. From a young age, I was always curious about others and loved hearing their stories. It is a privilege to get to do what I love every day and to join families in their journey.

Getting to Know Me

I love maps and road trips. I also enjoy trying new activities, such as doing ballet, kickboxing and playing the cello. I remind myself that it's good to step outside my comfort zone and embrace mistakes.
