I have some difficult news to share as we approach the end of this summer. Connections Testing & Consulting (CTC) is in a period of transition and will no longer be accepting community clients for testing. This decision was made with much consideration and countless attempts to ‘right the ship.’ The path of entrepreneurship is often unpredictable. I still believe in the goal of developing a practice that focuses on testing accessible to all community members, with services that are immediately available yet thorough and detail-focused. The most difficult part of this decision is knowing that there are such limited assessment options for many families, yet these evaluations are critical for treatment planning and necessary for receiving additional support. Despite my best efforts, there were tough challenges that led me to this decision.

I am not leaving the field, just transitioning to a different organization to continue my work as a testing psychologist. I intend to remain in Ames and will continue to offer testing services at my current location, but will be working with a different team. The new phone number is 515.994.8255. (Note: Please be sure to review the listing of insurances accepted for testing at this new location, either by clicking on the link above or by looking at the list of referral sources linked below.) If you are interested in options for psychological testing beyond CTC, I invite you to consider this list of referral sources.

This experience of building CTC has been one of immense learning and growth. It has been the most rewarding experience to work with families and clients to help guide directions of treatment and support. I have learned so much from each person and family that I have met with, and I have grown so much in the three years since starting CTC. I want to thank every single person who has been a part of the CTC story. Your trust and support have meant so much to me. Thank you for being part of my journey.
