Steven Richfield

Dr. Steven Richfield is a dedicated psychologist who specializes in helping children, adolescents, and young adults experiencing challenges such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, and high-functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder. His clients often struggle with adapting to school, peer relationships, home life, work environments, and their wider communities, leading to distress for both the individual and their families. Common issues include underachievement, conflicts within family dynamics, damaged self-esteem, and difficulties in forming healthy friendships.
