I am a pediatric psychologist who works with young children and their families. I specialize in developmental assessments for concerns related to autism, developmental delays and differences in how children grow and learn. My goal is to help families better understand their child’s strengths and needs while connecting them with resources and services that support healthy development.

I also provide therapy for children ages 0-7, with a focus on the parent-child relationship, emotion regulation, behavioral sleep concerns and healthy sleep routines, and general behavioral concerns. My specialized training includes infant and early childhood mental health, pediatric behavioral sleep strategies and parenting support. I am also trained in cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy. Through my work in Early Childhood Mental Health, I partner with families to support children’s social and emotional development.

Working with children and families has always been important to me. I believe the early years are a special time for growth and learning, and that the right support early on can help children build skills, gain confidence and thrive. What continues to inspire me is seeing the strengths in each child and family and celebrating both the small steps and big milestones along the way.

I believe families know their children best. I enjoy working together with parents and caregivers to build on each child’s strengths and create supportive strategies that help them grow and succeed. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, cuddling with my dog, exploring the outdoors, cheering on the Packers and Admirals, staying active at Orangetheory and discovering new coffee shops.
