The Reynolds Institute was created to address a gap in psychological care: the need for sophisticated, individualized understanding of neurodivergent adults—particularly women and adults whose neurodivergence has gone unrecognized for years.
Neurodivergent people are often asked to adapt to systems that were never designed with their neurology in mind.
For many adults, neurodivergence is recognized only after years of masking, compensating, and meeting expectations. They may have succeeded academically or professionally while privately experiencing exhaustion, sensory overload, relationship difficulties, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, depression, or a persistent sense that something about their experience does not fit the explanations they have been given.
The Reynolds Institute exists to create a more complete framework for understanding those experiences.
To advance the understanding, assessment, treatment, education, and advocacy surrounding neurodiversity through clinically rigorous and compassionate psychological practice.
Stephanie Reynolds, Psy.D., is a licensed psychologist with more than 20 years of clinical experience. She founded The Reynolds Institute to bring together psychological assessment, therapeutic services, professional education, and advocacy around a central area of clinical focus: neurodiversity in adulthood.
Her work is particularly focused on adults whose neurodivergence may have been missed, misunderstood, or masked—including women and high-achieving adults.
Dr. Reynolds brings a combination of psychological assessment expertise, clinical experience, and a relational and trauma-informed perspective to her work.
