About Me
Catherine Sancimino, Psy.D. is a psychologist and Assistant Professor at the Seaver Autism Center within Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. She provides research-reliable clinical evaluations for children and adults for ongoing studies at Seaver, including administration of the ADOS-2 (Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule, Second Edition) and ADI-R (Autism Diagnostic Interview, Revised). Dr. Sancimino is a co-P.I. of a clinical trial at Seaver, for which she provides evaluations and expert clinical judgment. In addition, Dr. Sancimino provides supervision for psychology and psychiatry trainees. She works with Mount Sinai and local New York City organizations to provide webinars and video recordings to disseminate knowledge about autism and child development. She also offers comprehensive clinical evaluations.
Dr. Sancimino graduated from the University of San Diego in 2003 and earned her doctorate of psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco in 2010. She focused her graduate work on child and adolescent psychology and taught cognitive assessment courses. In her second year of clinical training, she provided early intervention services to children diagnosed with autism spectrum disorders at UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospital in Oakland (formerly CHAI, Oakland Children’s Hospital), which inspired her to develop an expertise in assessing and treating individuals with neurodevelopmental disabilities. Along with her graduate studies, Dr. Sancimino served on the Board of the Northern California Society of Psychoanalytic Psychology (NCSPP) and was accepted into the San Francisco Center for Psychoanalysis (SFCP) mentoring program, where she completed specialized training to work with children using a psychodynamic theoretical framework. She has multiple publications in peer-reviewed scholarly journals and has presented at local, national, and international conferences, including at the annual meeting of the International Society for Autism Research (INSAR).
