Corinne M. Anton, Ph.D., ABPP
Dr. Anton is a board-certified psychologist who helps families understand how their child thinks, learns, feels, and develops, and what to do next. Her evaluations are thorough and strengths-based: alongside identifying what is getting in the way of success, she looks closely at what is working, so that recommendations build on real strengths rather than only addressing deficits.
Dr. Anton brings a background in pediatric hospital settings, where she spent 10 years establishing and developing the Cardiac Neurodevelopmental Program for the Heart Center at Children’s Health in Dallas, Texas - a program that identifies early developmental, neurocognitive, and behavioral concerns in medically complex children in order to provide evidence-based interventions and support as early as possible.
Board Certification
Board certification through the American Board of Professional Psychology is a voluntary, peer-reviewed credential that goes beyond licensure. Dr. Anton is board certified in Behavioral and Cognitive Psychology, a specialty grounded in the science of how children and adults learn, think, and behave. In practice, this means two things for families. Dr. Anton’s evaluations rely on assessment methods with strong research support, and her recommendations focus on practical, evidence-based strategies that can support change at home, school, and in daily life.
My Approach

Implementation
Dr. Anton's approach to psychological assessment is rooted in collaboration, clinical expertise, and a genuine commitment to understanding each individual's unique needs.
Beginning with a thorough consultation to explore concerns and develop a personalized assessment plan, through the completion of a comprehensive evaluation, and culminating in a collaborative feedback session with a detailed recommendations plan, every step of the process is designed with one goal in mind — to provide each patient and family with the clarity, direction, and support they need to move forward with confidence.
