The Neuropsychlopedia Podcast
Hosted by Board-Certified Pediatric Neuropsychologist, Rebecca A. Fontanetta, PsyD, ABPDN, The Neuropsychlopedia Podcast aims to provide clarity and direction for anyone who seeks answers and information related to neuropsychological assessment, interventions, and general well-being. This podcast is intended to be a collaborative approach to understanding, questioning, and learning, rather than a purely didactic experience. The Neuropsychlopedia (theneuropsychlopedia.com) is an educational platform created for all parents and providers, but especially those of neurodivergent children. Dr. F provides trustworthy and accessible information, grounded in science, in addition to real-world insight. We replace confusion and misinformation with clarity, connection, support, and hope.
