Jennifer Terranova is a psychometrician specializing in psychological testing, psychoeducation, and psychosocial support. She plays a key role in the assessment process, assisting in the administration of psychological tests to clarify diagnoses related to developmental, cognitive, behavioral, and mental health conditions.

Jennifer’s approach to testing is highly interpersonal, prioritizing rapport, clinical observation, and strengths-based assessment to ensure meaningful and accurate diagnoses. She believes that psychodiagnostic testing is not just a diagnostic tool but a therapeutic process in itself, providing validation, understanding, and a clearer path forward.

Jennifer is also dedicated to parenting education and consultation and has developed a structured program to help parents implement evidence-based strategies tailored to their family's needs. Her approach focuses on fostering proactive and empathic parent-child interactions, strengthening relationships, and creating a supportive home environment. In addition to individualized parent support, she facilitates workshops for parents of neurodivergent children, equipping them with practical tools to navigate parenting challenges effectively.

Her path to psychology has been dynamic and diverse. After graduating from the International School of Berne, Switzerland, she earned a B.A. in Psychology from UNLV. Before entering graduate school, she served as executive director of a nonprofit providing transitional housing for homeless women and children and worked as a freelance writer for resort and casino publications. She later pursued a doctoral program in Clinical Psychology at UNLV, focusing on neuropsychological assessment under the mentorship of Dr. Daniel Allen. After several years of intensive study, she made the difficult decision to step away from the program in 2015 following the birth of her daughter, whose special needs became her priority. However, she remained deeply connected to the field and has worked in psychological testing since 2011, bringing extensive experience in child and adult assessment to her role.

Originally from Massachusetts, Jennifer frequently travels to Colorado, where her parents and one of her sons live, while regularly visiting her home state to see family. She is a mom of five, with four grown children and one still in elementary school, and is a proud grandmother who enjoys spending time with her grandchildren. She loves cooking, baking, reading, singing, and playing piano, even if she admits her musical skills could use some improvement. Family is central to her life, and she brings the same warmth and dedication to her work that she does to her personal life.
