Services
Psychological Assessments
I use a comprehensive, neurodiversity-affirming therapeutic assessment approach to help you understand you or your child’s important strengths and areas of need. I provide independent evaluations, diagnostic clarification, and recommendations across home, school, and the workplace.
Consultation & Advocacy
I understand people do not exist in a vacuum and know exactly how to help you advocate for what you or your child need. From equipping you with knowledge about your ADA rights to attending IEP meetings, I act as your personal school psychologist and disability advocate!
Individual & Family Therapy
I am here to help you thrive. I specialize in individual and family therapy for neurodivergent and anxious people. I’m experienced in treating difficulties ranging from OCD to depression to learning problems. I use a multicultural and intersectional approach to understand the whole picture.
