I, Dr. Lakia Kearson am a pediatric neuropsychologist who specializes in helping children and adolescents understand their learning, attention, social-emotional, and developmental needs through thoughtful and comprehensive evaluation. I believe that clarity is empowering, and that when families truly understand why a child is struggling, they can finally move forward with confidence and compassion equipped with a clear plan, the right recommendations, and meaningful next steps. My approach is gentle, relational, and child-centered focused not only on test scores, but on the whole child: their story, their strengths, and the way they experience the world. With advanced training in medical, educational, and developmental neuropsychology, Dr. Kearson works closely with families to identify what is getting in the way of progress. At Neocortex Cottage, the evaluation process is designed to feel safe, personal, and deeply supportive. I blend clinical expertise with a warm, accessible style, helping families feel heard, understood, and guided not rushed or overwhelmed. My philosophy is simple: when children feel seen, they thrive.
