About
Hi, I’m Dr. Keziah Lyu, a licensed clinical psychologist. I provide psychological evaluations and comprehensive diagnostic assessments for children, teens, and adults, in person at our office in Los Altos. At our clinic I offer psychological testing only, not psychotherapy.
My goal is to help you feel understood, and to empower you to take positive, concrete steps toward health and wellness in every area of your life.
How I work
I assess cognitive functioning, personality, and emotional functioning, both to clarify a diagnosis and to guide treatment. I have specialized in testing for ADHD and autism.
Cognitive assessment
Personality and emotional assessment
Comprehensive diagnostic evaluation
Assessments take place in a confidential, comfortable setting. We begin with a thorough interview with the child and family to understand the concerns. The testing battery, the set of instruments used, is chosen for each child’s background and the goals of the assessment. At the end, we hold a feedback session with the parents and child to go over what we learned, my overall impressions, and recommendations going forward, and each family receives a comprehensive written report.
What I assess
ADHD
Autism spectrum disorder

Diagnostic questions for children, teens, and adults
