We reached out to Fresh Psychological Beginnings for a private educational and neuropsychological evaluation for our nephew, who was 4 at the time and getting ready to start school. The evaluation also included comprehensive testing for autism. We honestly had such a positive experience. Dr. Tom was wonderful with him and made him feel comfortable throughout the entire process. He was patient and kind, and you could tell he really took the time to get to know our nephew and understand both his strengths and the areas where he needed additional support. When we received the report, we were really impressed with how thorough and detailed it was. The results of the neuropsychological, educational, and autism evaluations helped us better understand our nephew’s individual needs and gave us clear recommendations that we could bring to his school. The evaluation was incredibly helpful in advocating for him, and ultimately helped him receive an IEP and the appropriate supports he needed at school. We’re so grateful for the time, care, and attention Dr. Tom put into the entire process. As a family, it made navigating the school system and understanding what our nephew needed so much easier. I would definitely recommend Fresh Psychological Beginnings to any family looking for a comprehensive evaluation for their child.

We have had an excellent experience working with Dr. Naratadam and have been fortunate to have him as a resource for our clients over the years. His ability to provide services in both English and Spanish has been especially helpful for the individuals and families we assist with immigration matters. What stands out most is the level of care and professionalism he brings to every evaluation. He takes the time to understand each client’s circumstances and prepares detailed reports that clearly reflect his findings. His work has been a valuable addition to our clients’ immigration cases, particularly when thorough psychological documentation is needed. Another quality we truly value is his reliability. He communicates promptly, is easy to work with, and makes every effort to accommodate time-sensitive requests. This has made a significant difference for clients facing strict filing deadlines or upcoming court dates. We are grateful to have a professional like Dr. Naratadam that we can confidently refer our clients to. His compassion, expertise, and dedication are evident in his work, and we would readily recommend him to anyone seeking bilingual psychological services or an immigration psychological evaluation.
I would highly recommend working with Dr. Naratadam. His approach helped me adjust to major life changes and finding confidence in myself; and he continues to do so. I had the privilege of working with Dr. Naratadam for several years now, and he has been gracious in supporting me where I am at and also believing in my potential. His warmth and friendliness makes the therapy sessions feel comfortable. He maintains a professional aura, and I appreciate his timely perspectives. Additionally, Dr. Naratadam also understands the unique challenges faced by minority populations. Personally, I have experienced so much growth from Dr. Naratadam's services and expertise. Due to his care and attention, I have been able to successfully progress in life both personally and professionally.
