About Dr. Del Piero
Services:Neuropsychological Assessment, Learning Disability and ADHD Evaluations, Health-Focused Therapy
Ages: Adults, Youth 10+
Locations: California, Washington, PSYPACT (telehealth)
Dr. Del Piero is a rehabilitation neuropsychologist who offers a diverse range of memory, attention, and learning assessments across the lifespan. Her evaluations span ADHD and learning disabilities in older children, teens and adults, post-concussion symptoms, cognitive symptoms that can accompany perimenopause and menopause, and memory changes, including dementia, in later life.
Her approach is strengths-based and collaborative. Rather than focusing only on what's difficult, Dr. Del Piero helps each person understand their cognitive strengths as well as their challenges. She then partners with them, bringing in family members, school teams, or other providers when helpful, to turn those insights into tailored, practical strategies for learning, work, and daily life.
Dr. Del Piero also provides evidence-based therapy, including cognitive behavioral therapy for coping with chronic health conditions, pain, and changes in physical abilities linked to illness, injury, and aging. She has particular experience helping people who are struggling to recover from a concussion or other brain injury.
An accomplished researcher, she was awarded the prestigious National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship in 2010 and has more than 50 peer-reviewed publications and presentations in clinical psychology and neuropsychology.
Her training reflects her lifespan focus. She earned her master's degree and PhD in clinical psychology at the University of Southern California in the Child & Family track, completed her psychology residency in lifespan neuropsychology and behavioral medicine at the University of Washington, and went on to a postdoctoral fellowship in rehabilitation psychology, with a specialization in neuropsychology, at the Seattle VA Hospital. She is a Clinical Assistant Professor in the University of Washington's Department of Rehabilitation Medicine and has worked as both a clinician and a program manager in the VA health care system.
Dr. Del Piero offers in-person neuropsychological assessments and therapy at our Monterey and Seattle offices, as well as telehealth services across California, Washington, and PSYPACT states (check if your state is part of PSYPACT).
About Dr. Roberts
Services:Learning Disability and ADHD Evaluations, Autism Evaluations
Ages: Children ages 6+, Adults
Locations: Washington, PSYPACT (telehealth)
Dr. Roberts is a licensed clinical psychologist specializing in comprehensive psychological and psychoeducational evaluations for children (ages 6+) and adults. He brings a developmentally informed approach to understanding how neurodivergence—including ADHD, autism spectrum, and learning differences—affects functioning across the lifespan. In his work with young people, Dr. Roberts evaluates attention and executive functioning difficulties, mood and emotional regulation challenges, and developmental concerns with an eye toward educational impact and school-based advocacy. For adults, particularly high-achieving professionals, he specializes in clarifying questions about mood, personality, and neurodiversity, and helping individuals understand their strengths, challenges, and pathways to better support their own well-being and optimal functioning.
Dr. Roberts is a strong advocate for youth with unique learning and educational needs. He brings deep expertise in educational and disability law—including the ADA and Section 504—and understands how psychoeducational evaluation serves as the foundation for legally sound advocacy and meaningful educational support. His evaluations are designed to provide clear, actionable documentation that supports students' access to appropriate accommodations and services at school, in college, and in advanced education.
As a nationally recognized expert in testing accommodations and related assessment practices, Dr. Roberts regularly consults and speaks on accommodation determinations for high-stakes standardized exams and serves as an expert reviewer for multiple licensure and regulatory boards. This expertise emerged from his foundational work in school-based assessment and clinical evaluation. This knowledge informs the rigor and practical clarity of every evaluation he conducts.
Following a collegiate baseball career, Dr. Roberts earned his Ph.D. in School Psychology from the University of South Carolina. He completed postdoctoral training in clinical child assessment at a small pediatric hospital in Baltimore, followed by clinical leadership roles at a large pediatric behavioral health hospital in Southwest Florida and an assistant professorship in a doctoral program in Kansas City. He offers in-person evaluations in west Seattle and telehealth services across Washington and PSYPACT states.
About Audra
Services: Executive Functioning Coaching
Ages: Adults, Youth 16+
Locations: Nationwide (telehealth)
Audra Yetter M.S., CCC-SLP, BC-ANCDS, ADHD-CCSP is an executive functioning (EF) coach, providing individualized telehealth-based coaching services to individuals across the United States. She is also a practicing speech-language pathologist licensed in the state of Montana, and holds board certification in the area of neurorehabilitation, through the Academy of Neurologic Communication Disorders and Sciences (ANCDS). Audra’s foundation in supporting individuals with EF challenges was curated through 15+ years of experience in hospital and medical outpatient settings treating acquired EF and other cognitive disorders related to brain injury and neurological disease. Her interest in EF coaching grew through experiences with many clients who presented with pre-injury factors such as ADHD or other EF challenges, in which many people described “falling through the cracks” on a lifelong basis with respect to supportive services. Audra’s coaching is informed by these rich clinical experiences and combined with extensive work and study of brain-behavior relationships, neuroplasticity, and values based in person-centered care. She is an ADHD Certified Clinical Services Provider.
Audra’s EF coaching philosophy is highly collaborative and honors each client’s autonomy and individual goals. She believes that all people have a unique set of EF strengths and challenges that present differently across various life situations. The stratification of these EF skills provides wonderful gifts and even superpowers for individuals; at the same time, EF challenges can interfere with one’s ability to attain long-range or daily goals; they also can be stressful or negative impact quality of life. To address EF challenges, Audra engages clients in a collaborative process involving exploring one’s own desire, ability, and confidence to invest in change and zeroing in on themes within the individual’s interrelated EF skills. She works with clients to develop awareness and a personal EF vocabulary to be able to make abstract brain-based concepts more tangible. An individualized “toolbox” of strategies and skills is developed that corresponds to specific inflection points of EF challenges. Interventions also include creating a plan to keep momentum going with new skills over time, to ultimately capitalize upon the potential for neuroplasticity, the brain’s lifelong ability to change.
Audra received her undergraduate degree in Psychology from Montana State University and a Master’s degree in Medical Speech-Language Pathology from the University of Washington. Her academic work has been published in the areas of speech motor control in Parkinson’s disease as well as language rehabilitation following stroke. She provides continuing education for speech pathologists at the state and national levels in the areas of cognitive and language neurorehabilitation. She also provides mentorship to speech pathology graduate students as well as practicing clinicians in the area of neurologic communication and cognitive disorders. In her free time, Audra spends time keeping up with a toddler, hiking and backpacking in Montana with her golden retriever, rafting, and cooking.
