I am a pediatric neuropsychologist with a specialty in Autism. I also have years of experience assessing other referrals including learning disabilities, ADHD, anxiety and mood. I believe every lagging skill also offers a strength. My assessment approach is wholistic: In addition to traditional neuropsychological evaluation conducted in my office, I gather perspectives from teachers, caregivers, and other key individuals in your child's life. I prefer, when possible, to observe each child in one other setting outside of my office, usually school. My turn-around time from intake to report is one month. Currently booking May '22

As a Clinical Social Worker spanning 25 plus year, I have worked within a number of settings and populations, specifically with children, adolescents and families.

My career has followed many paths building inclusive communities prior to becoming a licensed psychologist.

I also work collaboratively with parents and school staff to promote children's full academic, social, and emotional potential. I often use a Jungian approach to gain balance and well-being by appreciating strengths and less developed parts of the self.
