About

Hi, I'm Dara Pfeiffer.

If you’re here, you’re likely looking for direction, not guesswork. Let’s get you the information and support that actually moves things forward.

Get to Know Me

I’m a licensed educational psychologist with 12+ years of experience in assessment, neurodevelopment, and trauma-informed practice. I specialize in complex learning profiles, autism evaluations, and supporting families who need clarity, not confusion.

My approach is straightforward: clear answers, practical recommendations, and partnership. No gatekeeping, no jargon for the sake of it, and no “good luck, figure it out on your own” reports. Families deserve clarity and a real plan.

I hold a Diplomate in School Neuropsychology (ABSNP), am endorsed as a Family Infant Mental Health Practitioner, and trained as a Reflective Practice Facilitator (Level II). I also mentor in the Neurosequential Model of Therapeutics within the prestigious Neurosequential Network—bridging neuroscience, trauma, and education in real-world settings.​ Right now, I’m pursuing my doctorate in Educational Psychology.

Outside of work, you’ll probably find me running—13 marathons in, 3 Boston's down, and still chasing that next start line.
