Who Am I Professionally?

I am a caring, warm and enthusiastic educator and counselor whose passion is to help kids, along with their parents and teachers! I have had much experience in helping children with academic stress and pressures, ADHD, navigating high functioning autism, behavioral issues, social skills, identity and self-esteem via a variety of positions including tenured teacher, highly effective school counselor, behavioral assistant, in-home clinician, group facilitator... and of course as a mom. 

With 17 years of experience I know firsthand the many expectations and struggles our kids face day-to-day. These range from academics, to social, and especially emotional challenges. As an educator and as a mom of a young child, I understand the stressors parents and educators face, the complexities of navigating a school system, and how that can impact us in all areas of our lives.
