Intro

Hi! I'm a clinical psychologist who is licensed in Texas and California. I have worked with foster youth and young adults as well as sexual assault survivors.

What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

I have worked with foster youth who are neurodivergent and have seen the impact of providers and family recognizing a youth is neurodivergent and when they don't. As I've trained and consulted with social service organizations there have been more questions about teens and young adults who are neurodivergent so I appreciate that Prosper Health offers a space for neurodivergent adults.

How do you bring a strengths-based, affirming approach to your client work?

I believe it's important to focus on one's strengths and uniqueness rather than on their differences and deficits. It's empowering to help one recognize their strengths and build on them.
