Therapists » Licensed Educational Psychologist
I'm a licensed educational psychologist specializing in assessment and intervention of psychological disorders impacting learning and school performance (e.g. dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, attention issues like ADD/ADHD, neurodevelopment disorders such as autism, and social-emotional disorders). I specialize in psycho-educational assessment focusing on discovering why educational difficulties are occurring and providing intervention recommendations. Families often come to me to discover why their child may be failing in school, or has lost motivation to do their best, or is having behavioral/attention challenges, or when homework takes a long time and/or is a battle (among other reasons).

As a former teacher and school psychologist, I understand the demands placed on students in the classroom and what supports are effective for promoting academic success. I bring that perspective and expertise to my work which leads to meaningful recommendations regarding research based interventions for the classroom and beyond.
