Dr. Daffner-Deming focuses her practice on promoting the physical and mental health of children with various presenting concerns through empirically supported assessment and interventions. She has conducted neuropsychological, diagnostic, and psychoeducational testing across settings.

Dr. Daffner-Deming is especially interested in identifying methods to foster interdisciplinary and cross-system collaboration to support children and families during major developmental transition periods.
