I’m so glad you’ve found your way here. If you’re reading this, you might have some concerns about your child—or perhaps about yourself—and you’re wondering if a psychological evaluation could help provide clarity. You’re in the right place.
I specialize in comprehensive psychological evaluations for children, adolescents, and young adults. My goal is to help you better understand the challenges you or your child may be facing and to provide clear, actionable recommendations to support growth and well-being.
A little about my background: I completed my undergraduate studies at UCLA and earned my doctorate in Clinical Psychology from Michigan State University. I completed an APA-accredited predoctoral internship with the Palm Beach County Youth Services Department in Florida and a postdoctoral fellowship at the Washburn Center for Children in Minnesota. Over the years, I’ve worked in a variety of settings, including public schools, community mental health centers, juvenile detention centers, and partial residential treatment programs—giving me a well-rounded perspective on the diverse needs of the children and families I serve.
I take a multidimensional approach to assessment, gathering detailed information to provide both diagnostic clarity and practical, individualized treatment recommendations. While an evaluation is meant to serve as a roadmap for treatment, many of my clients walk away with something even more meaningful—validation of their experiences, new insights, and a deeper understanding of themselves or their child.
If you are looking for greater clarity, validation, or guidance on how to best support yourself or your child, I would be honored to help. Please don’t hesitate to reach out.
And when I’m not working? I would love to take a long nap or read a good romance novel, but—let’s be honest—most of my time at home is spent being the personal assistant to my young son!
