About

Hello, I'm Shannon, a psychologist specializing in autism assessment for adults. If you've been wondering whether you may be on the autism spectrum, I would be honored to guide you through the evaluation process.

I believe that an autism assessment is about much more than reaching a diagnosis—it's an opportunity to better understand yourself, your experiences, and the challenges and strengths that have shaped your life. My goal is to create a warm, supportive space where you can share your story openly and feel truly heard.

Together, we will explore your questions, make sense of your experiences, and work toward greater clarity and self-understanding.

Education & Licensure
PhD in School Psychology from Michigan State University; Bachelors in Psychology from University of California, Los Angeles
Treatment Approach
What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

I view the psychological evaluation process as a gateway to answers—an opportunity to explore challenges, strengths, and questions that may have been present throughout a person's life. My goal is to create a safe, supportive space where individuals can share their stories openly. Using my clinical expertise in autism, I strive to give clients clarity and validation on their lived experiences.

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

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. If you are looking for greater clarity, validation, or guidance on how to best support yourself, I would be honored to help. Please don’t hesitate to reach out.
