Hi, I’m Dr. Aaron A. Gubi

I’m a licensed psychologist, tenured Associate Professor of Psychology, and Director of the Center for Autism Assessment & Research Services (CAARS) at Kean University. Throughout my career, I’ve worked across medical, psychiatric, school, university, and community mental health settings, helping individuals and families better understand themselves through comprehensive psychological assessment and evidence-based therapy.

Today, I specialize in psychological and neuropsychological assessment for toddlers through adults and psychotherapy for adolescents and adults. Whether someone is seeking answers about autism, ADHD, learning differences, emotional well-being, or life challenges, my goal is to provide thoughtful, individualized care in a warm, collaborative, and nonjudgmental environment.

Whether I am conducting an evaluation or providing therapy, I believe every person deserves to feel genuinely understood. I tailor treatment to each person’s goals and integrate evidence-based approaches, including CBT, DBT, mindfulness-based interventions, motivational interviewing, psychodynamic, relational, and trauma-informed therapies, to promote meaningful and lasting change.

Person-Centered
Assessments are personalized and tailored to the individual’s developmental level, needs, and goals — never one-size-fits-all.

Evidence-Based
Assessments and therapy integrate validated standardized measures, clinical observation, and evidence-based approaches, including CBT, DBT, and mindfulness-based interventions.
