Dr. Prieto is a psychologist with specialized training in pediatric neuropsychology. She earned her Ph.D. in School Psychology from Fordham University in 2024 and an M.A. in Psychology and Education from Teachers College, Columbia University in 2017. Her predoctoral training encompassed comprehensive assessment, intervention, and consultation services for children and families across multiple systems throughout New York City.
She completed her clinical internship in pediatric neurorehabilitation at Children’s Hospital Colorado, providing inpatient and outpatient assessment and treatment for children and adolescents with acquired brain injuries (e.g., secondary to traumatic brain injury and acute neuroinflammatory conditions). Dr. Prieto then completed her fellowship at Boston Children’s Hospital, where she deepened her expertise in evaluating and supporting diverse pediatric medical populations—including youth with epilepsy, oncological diagnoses, stroke, and sensory impairments—from infancy through young adulthood.
Dr. Prieto’s clinical and research interests center on reducing barriers to care, delivering culturally responsive neuropsychological services, and advocating for earlier identification and intervention. Her research explores how social determinants of health influence pediatric outcomes, underscoring her commitment to providing accessible, evidence-based care for children with complex medical and developmental needs.
