Clinical Interests
I work with children and their families, specializing in concerns with development, social interactions, and behavior. I assess to determine if a diagnosis, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder, is appropriate. I also provide evidence-based intervention for families who have concerns around their young child's presentation, directing our Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) program.
