Meet Dr. Eriko Lapoint Licensed Psychologist & Evaluator
About & Professional Background
I am a Licensed Psychologist (CA #25606) with over 15 years of specialized experience in psychological and developmental assessment. My work focuses on helping individuals and families answer complex diagnostic questions with clarity and compassion. Since 2008, I have completed thousands of evaluations in the private practice and clinical settings with a focus on developmental assessment.
Comprehensive Specializations
- Autism Spectrum Disorder and Intellectual Disabilities
- Neurodevelopmental & Executive Functioning Challenges
- Trauma and Emotional Well-being
- Assessments across the lifespan (age 2 to older adults)
Culturally & Linguistically Responsive Care
I offer full psychological assessments in English, Japanese, and American Sign Language (ASL). I draw on a deep background in Deaf culture and linguistic fluency to support diverse families and individuals.
My Clinical Philosophy
Assessment is a structured process of understanding. My goal is to provide a clear, clinically grounded roadmap that help clients and their providers access the critical support and resources they need.
What drives me!
Outside of my work, I find balance through baking, running with my dogs, parenting my two active teenage boys, and exploring San Diego with my husband.
By utilizing standardized psychometric tools and a warm, collaborative approach, I provide clients with clear, actionable reports. These findings offer a precise roadmap for treatment and future decisions.
