Dr. Astrid Heathcote, Licensed Clinical Psychologist

 Welcome to my site!

I am Dr. Astrid Heathcote, licensed clinical psychologist. I have provided psychological services, including assessment, diagnosis and treatment for over a decade. I enjoy working with all age groups, including infants, children, adolescents, and adults. My training and experience is in clinical psychology and I can be helpful with psychological testing, diagnosis and treatment of various mental health concerns, including couple's counseling and post-divorce adjustment for co-parenting. Making the decision about seeking assistance for mental health issues can be difficult in itself and should not be complicated by finding " a good fit" or trying to figure out who you should call. As educated consumer of mental health services, address the psychologist with questions about his or her credentials, experience, and treatment approach, when making the appointment. Depending on the individual need for psychological services,  as clinical psychologist I can be very helpful in creating a treatment plan that fits your unique need. Seeing a psychologist should not be a negative experience and be a "good fit" and above all should instill the feeling of hope and purpose after your first visit.  I have extensive experience in the psychological assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of depression, anxiety, ADHD, Personality disorders, high conflict couple's therapy, and learning problems. I have a particular interest in assisting children and adults  with  autism spectrum disorders (ASD). My Current assessment, diagnosis and treatment of ASD not only include the most recent and international scientific research but years of direct contact with individuals with ASD that continue to teach me new perspectives and ideas continously. Feel free to contact me for a FREE phone consultation at 480-275-2249 or e-mail  dr.astrid@cox.net . My office is located in Ahwatukee, Ray Road Medical Center, off the I10 and Ray Road.
