Accepting new patients

No ratings to display.

Why aren't there any ratings?

There is no publicly available rating for this care provider for one of three reasons:

  1. They do not see patients.
  2. They see patients but have not yet received the minimum number of patient experience reviews. To be eligible for display, we require a minimum of 30 surveys. This ensures that the rating is statistically reliable and an accurate reflection of patient experience.
  3. They see patients but do not see enough patients to collect a statistically-reliable patient experience rating.

About me

Dr. Seghete’s clinical interests are in the areas of pediatric neuropsychology, perinatal mental health/women's mental health, and child maltreatment and early life trauma. She has experience and training in evaluating children and adolescents with a wide range of disorders resulting in cognitive dysfunction, such as ADHD, learning disorders, and psychological disorders. Dr. Seghete has evaluated and worked with children and adolescents across a variety of ages with a history of abuse or other psychological trauma. Additionally, she is certified in perinatal mental health and has an interest in women's mental health more broadly. Dr. Seghete's research interests are highly related to her clinical interests, with a focus on using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to understand neurobiological  mechanisms of action in perinatal mental health interventions and the neurobiological impact of childhood maltreatment across the lifespan.
