Dr. Gale specializes in providing comprehensive psychological evaluations, psycho-educational evaluations, developmental evaluations, and child custody evaluations. She works with children, adolescents, and adults who have a wide variety of presenting problems including Autism, Asperger’s Disorder, Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), Learning Disabilities, processing problems, communication problems, medical disabilities, developmental delays, as well as social delays, depression, and anxiety. Dr. Gale’s comprehensive evaluations are extremely helpful for clients because of the specific, client-tailored recommendations she provides at the end of the evaluation process. Dr. Gale is an independently licensed psychologist who has been working with clients in private practice since 2007. Her doctorate is in clinical psychology from Fuller Theological Seminary, Graduate School of Psychology (APA-approved) in Pasadena, California. Much of Dr. Gale’s training was obtained in community mental health clinics, schools, and in a private neuropsychological clinic. Her graduate research and current perspective includes a focus on the Positive Youth Development model, which views children and adolescents as “assets to be developed, not problems to be managed.” She believes that by increasing the protective factors and decreasing risk factors, youth are equipped to develop into thriving adults. Dr. Gale completed a Post-Doctoral Fellowship in a private practice setting. Her clinical practice currently serves children, adolescents, and adults throughout Georgia as well as several surrounding states. Dr. Gale is a founding member of the Pediatric Resource Network (PRN), an Atlanta-based non-profit organization which provides information and resources to families who have children with disabilities.
