I’m a Registered Psychologist with over two decades of experience supporting neurodivergent children and families.

My clinical work is grounded in developmental psychology and informed by the principles of Polyvagal Theory, Interpersonal Neurobiology, trauma-informed care, and Collaborative & Proactive Solutions (CPS).

I support children in developing executive functioning skills, emotional regulation, and adaptive coping strategies through developmentally attuned, relationship-based approaches.

My work is collaborative and strengths-based, integrating relational, cognitive, and physiological supports to promote meaningful growth across settings. I’m committed to neurodiversity-affirming care that centers autonomy, safety, and authentic connection.

I’m a Speech Language Pathologist with 16 years of experience working with the pediatric community (children aged 1-18) across home and school settings. I value a neuro-affirming approach where I encourage and support the strengths and differences of neurodivergent children. I believe in creating safe learning spaces where children can thrive and learn to communicate through connection and play. I love working collaboratively with parents, teachers, and various team members to problem solve, and help children be successful communicators across environments and to reach their full potential. I have experience working with Autism, Down Syndrome, intellectual disability, articulation/speech disorders, language disorders, literacy/phonological awareness difficulties, and social communication difficulties/differences. I also have worked extensively with children with complex communication needs (CCNs) who need Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) to communicate.
