OVERVIEW

I have been practicing in this specialty area since my certification in 2012. I love this field and the patients and families I get to engage with on a regular basis. I always learn so much from the conversations I have with families and I enjoy celebrating their progress over time. In my practice, I see a variety of neurodevelopmental diagnoses such as ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, learning differences, genetic differences and anxiety. I enjoy collaborating with other specialists and looking at care from a wide variety of perspectives. I provide evaluation, medication management, consultation, ongoing care and collaboration.

My family is very important to me. I’m a soccer and dance mom and it’s such a privilege to witness my kids develop their own passions and evolving personalities. We love to travel to new places and revisit our favorites as well. Spending time at our cabin will always be a favorite spot. I also  love walking the trails in my neighborhood, sharing a chat with friends, moving my body through various fitness activities, finding amazing bites to eat and lately I’ve been trying to nail down all the best sourdough recipes. I’m rarely without a coffee in my hand and a podcast or audiobook in my ear.
