Clinical Interests
My clinical interests include the assessment and treatment of a variety of mental health disorders (e.g. disruptive behavior, anxiety, depression, etc.) for individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders. I am also passionate about best-practices related to supervision and mentorship.

Care Philosophy
I believe in a ecological-behavioral approach to assessment and treatment. When appropriate, I emphasize supporting caregivers for referred patients to implement evidence-based interventions.
