For toddlers, children, and teenagers, I provide testing (psychological or psychoeducational) and therapy for a range of presenting concerns such as neurodevelopmental (such as ASD, ADHD), anxiety, academic, problem behavior (e.g., aggression, self-hitting/biting, stereotypies), and more. I use results of testing to inform therapy which is individualized to best meet the needs of your child and family. I have a specialty working with toddlers, children, caregivers, and people of all ages with Autism Spectrum Disorders and/or Intellectual Disabilities for testing and therapy.
I work with children and their families in a collaborative manner to set goals, complete assessment when appropriate, and develop treatment. All treatment is individualized to best meet the goals of the child and family. With that, I view caregiver involvement as critical to the assessment and treatment process.
I completed my predoctoral and postdoctoral experiences at Marcus Autism Center and Emory University School of Medicine. I was an Adjunct Professor at the Georgia School of Professional Psychology, Argosy, Atlanta where I taught clinical psychology doctoral students. I have previously held leadership roles in Georgia Psychological Association.
