KRISTI H. FULLER, Ph.D., ABCN

 

Dr. Kristi Fuller provides comprehensive assessment, consultation, and intervention services for children, adolescents, and young adults with developmental and/or acquired injury needs. Every evaluation is tailored to meet the needs of the individual child, and identify his/her strengths and weaknesses in order to more appropriately prescribe effective educational and therapeutic interventions. 

Dr. Fuller is an experienced, licensed psychologist with additional training in developmental psychology, brain development, and medical complications which impact brain functioning. She conducts the evaluations in a way that provides the special attention that your child needs during the assessment process. The goal of the neuropsychological evaluation is to develop an appropriate treatment plan based on your child’s strengths and weaknesses. Such treatment plans may include educational accommodations or modifications, specific therapeutic services (i.e., counseling, speech/language therapy, occupational therapy), and/or medications.

Dr. Fuller grew up in  Alaska and graduated from Chugiak High School.  She retuned to Alaska with her husband and two young daughters in 1996.  She initially worked for Providecence Health System and entered private practice in 2005.
