Bio

Ariana Garagozzo, PsyD, is a postdoctoral fellow at the Center for Autism Research (CAR) where she works as a clinician on multiple research studies, conducts autism evaluations, and pilots new interventions. In her research role, Dr. Garagozzo works on projects that center on supporting autistic young adults as they move into adulthood. Her research interests include developing interventions to support autistic young adults with and without intellectual disability in learning and practicing skills that facilitate healthy romantic relationships. 

Dr. Garagozzo earned her doctorate in clinical psychology with an emphasis in pediatric neuropsychology at Roosevelt University in Chicago. Her dissertation research focused on identifying transdiagnostic predictors of social differences in children with co-occurring ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder. She completed her APA-accredited predoctoral clinical psychology internship at CHOP within the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences.

During graduate school, Dr. Garagozzo's clinical training included assessing individuals for autism and commonly co-occurring developmental and mental health diagnoses across the lifespan. She also provided evidence-based interventions to support autistic children, adolescents, and their families. Dr. Garagozzo has served in leadership roles as a member of the Women in Science Committee at CHOP, a supervisor to graduate students, and a mentor for college students interested in pursuing their doctorate and working in autism research.
