Welcome to
Arroyo Mind Labs
At Arroyo Mind Labs, we believe every child deserves to be understood. Not just by test scores or diagnostic labels, but through curiosity, compassion, and clinical insight. Founded by Educational Psychologist Dr. Ryan Bird, our practice blends the science of learning with the art of therapy to support children, teens, and families in reaching their full potential.
Whether you’re seeking answers through psychoeducational testing or emotional support for your child’s mental health, we’re here to help minds grow, heal, and discover.
Our Services
Evaluation
Our comprehensive psychoeducational evaluations identify learning profiles, attention issues, processing differences, and emotional-behavioral patterns that impact school and home life. Assessments are tailored to the referral question and may include cognitive, academic, executive functioning, social-emotional, and behavioral domains.
Therapy
We offer individual therapy for children and teens navigating anxiety, low self-esteem, emotional regulation, school stress, identity development, and life transitions. Our sessions use tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Positive Psychology, all adapted to each child’s age and needs.
