We design our work around our lives, and not our lives around our work. We model new ways of working that enable a better blend of personal and professional.

Our History.
The Wright Psychology and Learning Center was founded by Dr. Maggie Wright in 2006. Starting her practice as a solo practitioner, Dr. Wright carved out a niche in the Louisville market, quickly becoming sought after for her comprehensive evaluations and expertise in diagnosing key learning differences, like dyslexia.
Parents valued her thorough approach which includes interviews, observations and evidence-based testing methods, as well as a comprehensive and action-oriented written report.
“Our reports provide not only the “nuts and bolts” of the evaluation results, but a true roadmap for intervention and accommodations.”
As demand for her services quickly grew, Dr. Wright expanded to a practice of 5 doctoral-level licensed psychologists and 7 professional educational interventionists.
This enabled families to not only benefit from the practices’ clinical expertise –but also from research-based, one-on-one tutoring with highly trained, professional tutors using gold-standard methodology like Orton-Gillingham and the Barton Reading & Spelling System.
As well, staff psychologists began offering therapy for a wide variety of concerns including Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Behavioral Disorders, Giftedness/Twice-Exceptional Learners and Learning Disorders, with a focused specialty on Dyslexia.
Today, our dedicated, multi-disciplinary staff works together to provide a personalized, well-rounded treatment approach to each of our clients and their families.
“We are passionate about helping children reach their full potential and this passion is what fuels our work.”
Dr. Wright believes in “giving back” to the Louisville community and frequently offers presentations and talks to local schools and advocacy organizations to help raise awareness about the importance of diagnosis and remediation of learning differences.
