Skyler McLeod, M.S.

Neuropsychology Extern

I am currently a fourth-year doctoral candidate at St. John’s University completing my clinical externship at Growing Minds. As a clinician under the supervision of Dr. Pagirsky, I provide comprehensive neuropsychological evaluations. It is always my primary goal to provide culturally competent evaluations that highlight both the child’s and family’s strengths.

My clinical experiences have familiarized me with the psychoeducational evaluation process from both the clinician and family’s perspective. Working in the field of psychology and helping families find answers has allowed me to discover my true passion in life. It is this shared passion amongst the team at Growing Minds that compelled me to join.

Outside of Growing Minds I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, cuddling with my two cats, and reading novels.
