Dr. Penelope Chavez-Frigon
Hi, I am Dr. Penelope Chavez-Frigon, aka Dr. Penelope. I received my doctoral degree in psychology from Xavier University. I have specialized in Psychological Evaluations. I have over 20 years of experience in the mental health field providing psychological evaluations. I work with children, adolescents, adults and families providing psychological testing. I specialize in the evaluation of high-masking and twice exceptional individuals in addition to general psychological evaluations.
I assess mental health issues including: anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, parenting issues, self-esteem, peer relationships, ADHD, autism, gender affirming issues, and affirming psychological assessments. I have a specific passion in helping people who have struggled to be seen, finding clarification to understand themselves.
I’m interested in providing a non-judgmental and supportive environment to reach the level of happiness you are seeking in your life. I have a passion for being an ally to the queer community and providing affirming support to individuals with neurodivergence. I welcome all individuals who are looking to understand themselves better, whether you have done extensive research on neurodivergence or are just beginning the journey.
Additionally, with the increase of dementia diagnoses, more individuals find themselves interested in knowing their current memory status. I also provide baseline cognitive and memory assessments. People often find this type of evaluation helpful, particularly if there is a family history of cognitive decline and/or dementia.
In my assessment room, you can expect a warm cozy environment with plants, indirect sunlight, and my weighted plush, Norman.
