At BonPsy Wellness, we are a concierge diagnostic practice specializing in high-precision neuropsychological testing for discerning families in Orange County and California. We believe you cannot shape what you do not understand.

Meet Our Clinical Experts

Dr. Colleen Long, Psy.D.

Licensed Psychologist | Founder & Clinical Director

Dr. Colleen Long, PsyD, is a licensed clinical psychologist and neuropsychologist with more than 15 years of experience delivering highly targeted, clinically rigorous psychological and neuropsychological evaluations for children, adolescents, and adults. Over the course of her career, she has personally conducted more than 8,000 comprehensive evaluations, earning a reputation for clarity, precision, and deeply human care.

Dr. Long’s academic training spans some of the country’s most respected institutions. She attended New York University, earned her undergraduate degree from Indiana University, and completed both her Master’s degree and Doctor of Psychology (PsyD) at Spalding University, where she received advanced training in psychological assessment and complex diagnostic formulation.

Her clinical expertise includes comprehensive neuropsychological and psychological evaluations, as well as specialized assessments such as bariatric surgery pre-operative clearances, spinal cord stimulator evaluations, surrogacy and egg donor assessments, and other high-stakes, medically integrated evaluations. Her work in the bariatric space ultimately led her to author a book focused on the psychological preparation required before and after bariatric and gastric sleeve surgery, bridging the gap between medical outcomes and long-term psychological success.

From 2015 to 2025, Dr. Long bootstrapped and scaled a neuropsychological testing practice in Boston, Massachusetts, building it into a highly respected regional referral center before successfully selling the practice. After relocating to California in 2019, she launched a second location under the same model, expanding access to high-quality assessment on both coasts.

However, as behavioral healthcare underwent seismic shifts, including rising administrative burden, workforce shortages following the Great Resignation of 2021, and increasing friction with insurance-driven models: Dr. Long made a deliberate decision to reimagine what neuropsychological care could look like.

BonPsy Wellness was Born

Drawing on a blue-ocean strategy, she founded Bonpsy Wellness, a modern hybrid practice that intentionally steps outside the traditional insurance system while also rejecting the $8,000–$10,000 price tags, common in boutique assessment practices.

By thoughtfully integrating AI, advanced technology, and streamlined clinical workflows, Dr. Long has created a model that delivers accessible, affordable, white-glove neuropsychological care—without sacrificing depth, rigor, or personalization. Every evaluation at Bonpsy Wellness is curated, efficient, and clinically meaningful, designed to give families and adults clear answers and actionable guidance, not just data.

At the heart of Dr. Long’s work is a simple philosophy: exceptional assessment should be both sophisticated and humane. Her approach balances scientific precision with real-world practicality, helping clients understand not only what is happening, but why—and what to do next.

Beyond her clinical work, Dr. Long is a vocal advocate for clinicians and healthcare professionals who have invested extraordinary time, training, and financial resources into their education—only to find themselves positioned as Davids navigating systems dominated by insurance Goliaths. She is a regular champion for providers seeking sustainable, ethical alternatives to models that prioritize volume and margin over clinical expertise and human care.

Dr. Long is the host of the podcast Off the Chair, where she helps clinicians and professionals reimagine how to use their expertise as a strategic moat—thinking creatively, entrepreneurially, and outside traditional healthcare constraints. The show explores how to break free from insurance dependency, reclaim autonomy, and build careers that honor both professional skill and personal well-being, in a system that too often treats providers as interchangeable cogs rather than valued experts.

Dr. Cindy John, Ph.D.

Licensed Clinical Psychologist & Lead Psychometrist

Bilingual (English/Korean)

Dr. Cindy John represents the pinnacle of pediatric and developmental expertise. With an elite clinical pedigree, Dr. John earned her Ph.D. from Loma Linda University before completing her pre-doctoral internship at Children’s Hospital of Orange County (CHOC) and her post-doctoral fellowship at Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles (CHLA). Her training reflects extensive experience working with medically complex, developmentally diverse, and high-needs pediatric populations.

She is known for her meticulous diagnostic approach, deep understanding of neurodevelopment, and exceptional ability to translate complex findings into clear, actionable guidance for families.

Previously, Dr. John served as a clinical psychologist at the USC University Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities (UCEDD), where she conducted comprehensive evaluations for children with a wide range of developmental, neurological, and learning profiles. This role required the highest level of diagnostic precision and interdisciplinary collaboration, reinforcing her reputation as a clinician trusted with complex and high-stakes cases.

At Bonpsy Wellness, Dr. John provides comprehensive pediatric and developmental evaluations that support accurate diagnosis, medical decision-making, and educational planning. Her assessments are particularly valued by families navigating concerns related to developmental delays, learning differences, ADHD, autism spectrum conditions, and complex developmental presentations. She is known for her thoughtful, child-centered approach and her ability to help parents truly understand their child’s strengths, challenges, and needs.

Families throughout Mission Viejo, Ladera Ranch, Irvine, and San Diego seek out Dr. John when diagnostic clarity matters most—whether for school accommodations, treatment planning, or long-term developmental support. Her work bridges the gap between hospital-level expertise and personalized private care, offering families the confidence that their child’s evaluation is both comprehensive and deeply individualized.
