Tarboro Pediatric Psychology was founded by Dr. Paige Temple, who grew up in Tarboro and returned in 2004 to start a private practice serving children and families in Edgecombe County. Due to our unique array of pediatric services, populations served have expanded to include those from Tarboro, Rocky Mount, Greenville, Wilson, Roanoke Rapids, Ahoskie and areas further east.
Our mission is to provide high quality, evidence-based assessment and treatment in a caring environment. We take pride in offering cutting edge services that are based on individual needs.

Schedule Your Appointment
New Patients-Please Read!
If you are interested in scheduling an appointment for your child as a new patient, please complete the intake forms found under the Forms heading of our website. After we receive your child's forms by fax, mail, or email your case will be reviewed and assigned to a provider. This process may take up to a week given the volume of new referrals that we are receiving. Generally, we communicate with prospective new patients via email in order to gather information about presenting problems, what services are needed, insurance questions, and any questions you may have. Our psychologists provide services in both clinical and school settings and it is generally easier to reach us by email at
tpp@tarboropediatricpsychology.com.
