He focuses exclusively on assessments to clarify diagnoses and guide treatment recommendations, rather than ongoing therapy.
Dr. Heimberg completed his neuropsychology training through the UCLA Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior and the VA Illiana Health Care System.

In addition to private practice, Dr. Heimberg serves as medical staff at the Motion Picture & Television Fund and holds membership in the National Register of Health Service Psychologists (#68256). He has specialized training in recognizing subtle facial expressions and affect from the Paul Ekman Group, which he applies to his clinical interviews and evaluations.
