Meet Dr. Laura Sanders

Licensed Psychologist Specializing in Assessment

Dr. Laura Sanders, Online Autism Assessment

Thank you for your interest in working with Dr. Laura Sanders, a licensed psychologist (LP) and certified school psychologist. She earned a PhD in psychology at Texas Women’s University, and her specialization is in school neuropsychology. She spent her first seven years in practice as a school psychologist in the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex. After working as a school psychologist in DFW, Dr. Sanders built a thriving assessment practice, DFW Assessment, PLLC. When Dr. Sanders and her family made the move to Ft. Collins, CO in 2019, she built another testing practice, Northern Colorado Assessment Center.

Through her two assessment practices, Dr. Sanders has provided autism spectrum disorder (ASD) testing for more than 200 adults. Her experience providing hundreds of assessments has made Dr. Sanders exceptionally good at providing accurate diagnoses. That includes the ability to offer differential diagnosis for those who show signs of more than one possible diagnosis. You will always get thorough assessments and complete and accurate reports when you work with Dr. Sanders. 

In addition to working as a school psychologist and assessment psychologist, Dr. Sanders has also shared her education and experience with the next generation of clinicians by building and teaching college-level psychology courses. She has also served as a mentor and supervisor for new clinicians who are completing their studies. Additionally, Dr. Sanders has partnered with community agencies like the Texas Department State Health Services My Health My Resources division to provide her skill and experience to those who are in need. 

When she’s not hard at work supporting the assessment and diagnostic needs of her clients, Dr. Sanders enjoys spending time with her husband, children, and extended family. She loves to sing and currently performs with and serves on the board of the Larimer Choral Society. When she has free time, you’ll find Dr. Sanders reading, swimming, watching movies, or just relaxing with family and friends.
