About

Hello and welcome! I am a licensed psychologist based in Texas with a background in clinical, forensic, and health settings. Additionally, I hold PSYPACT credentials, allowing me to provide telehealth services across over 40 states. My passion lies in conducting psychological evaluations for individuals of all ages and diverse backgrounds. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working in a variety of settings, including inpatient and outpatient hospitals, a university counseling center, and a private forensic neuropsychology practice.

Education & Licensure
PhD in Clinical Psychology from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas; Masters in Clinical Rehabilitation Counseling from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas; Bachelors in Biological Sciences from Southern Methodist University, Dallas
Treatment Approach
What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

I am passionate about helping autistic and neurodivergent individuals who want to improve their mental and emotional well-being. Neurodivergent individuals are often underserved, misunderstood, unsupported, or left feeling isolated. My goal is to provide psychological evaluations that offer clarity, and a deeper understanding of what makes them unique. Every person deserves to be understood on their own terms.

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

I prioritize an affirming and strengths-based approach to ensure that every individual feels seen, heard, empowered, and validated. I value using evidence-based practices and provide a safe space to develop increased self-awareness and resilience, empowering individuals to better understand their own world.
