Dr. Michael McLane is a licensed psychologist with expertise in child and adolescent neuropsychology, a professional specialty devoted to understanding how learning and behavior are related to the development of a child’s brain structures and systems.

The majority of Dr. McLane’s private practice consists of assessing children, adolescents, and college-aged students when there are concerns about learning, attention, behavior, social skills, and emotional adjustment.

Dr. McLane also enjoys conducting psychotherapy with children, adolescents, and young adults, which sometimes involves consulting with parents and teachers about how to help the student. Using a cognitive-behavioral approach to therapy, Dr. McLane seeks to identify and address treatment goals in a timely manner. Dr. McLane also conducts parent training, which can be an important supplement to individual psychotherapy with children.

In order to provide high quality services, Dr. McLane stays up-to-date with current research findings and evidence-based practice through his memberships in several professional organizations, such as:
  • Texas Psychological Association
  • American Psychological Association
  • International Neuropsychological Society
  • National Academy of Neuropsychology
Additionally, Dr. McLane speaks often with a number of local professionals in related disciplines, such as child and adolescent psychiatry and neurology, developmental pediatrics, and speech-language pathology. He also is in frequent contact with private school administrators, academic language therapists, and educational tutors. This network of colleagues enables Dr. McLane to refer your child to other specialists, if needed.
