Using my education, training, and ongoing learning for client empowerment.
I am a queer, neurodivergent licensed clinical psychologist and Nationally Certified School Psychologist. I emphasize providing services that help clients better understand themselves and how to advocate for their needs in an ableist, difficult world. Much of my research and clinical work focuses on promoting family and school-based support for LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent youth and adults. The vast majority of my clients have overlapping neurodivergent identities and diagnoses (Autism, ADHD, OCD). I also train professionals in clinics, hospitals, schools, and universities on how to provide culturally responsive neurodiversity- and gender-affirming care.
