With over 15 years of experience working directly with families and children, I offer a compassionate and integrated approach through a variety of evidence-based modalities. I specialize in high-quality psychological evaluations result in a comprehensive psychological report, and I aim to "tell the story" of an individual rather than simply assign a "label." All evaluations yield individualized recommendations, and I provide a client-centered, in-depth feedback session aimed at empowerment. I also work with individuals and families with issues around neurodiversity, anxiety, depression, or those simply wanting to build skills towards empowerment. With families, I take an attachment lens informed by my experience with Child Parent Psychotherapy. With children and teens, I utilize a mindfulness-based approach as well as CBT.

I received my Doctorate in Educational Psychology from the University of Utah. I am Licensed in Oregon and Utah. I have experience working directly with families and young children who have experienced trauma, and have training and experience in Trauma-Focused CBT, Child Parent Psychotherapy, and the Attachment, Regulation and Competency Framework. Working with children and teens in individual and group environments, I have years of experience leading Mindfulness-Based Interventions and am trained in Mindful Schools, Learning to Breathe, and Mindfulness-Based CBT for Depression. I also am a trained yoga instructor, and am able to integrate this training into sessions. I also have five years of experience conducting high quality psychological and neuropsychological evaluation services in order to provide diagnoses (when warranted) and treatment recommendations. I specialize in the assessment and evaluation of Autism Spectrum Disorder and Nonverbal Learning Disorders, among others.
