I am a dually licensed school and clinical psychologist in the state of Colorado. I received my Ph.D. in Clinical Child Psychology from the University of Denver in 2002 and have served as a licensed and nationally certified school psychologist with Jefferson County Public Schools since then. My extensive training and experience in both clinical and school psychology have allowed me to pursue my career ambition, namely, to help children, adolescents, and young adults with identifying and overcoming obstacles to their academic success and emotional well-being. After receiving my Ph.D. from the University of Denver in 2002, I completed the re-specialization licensure program in School Psychology at the University of Colorado at Denver. Since then, I have enjoyed working with students of all ages as a school psychologist in Jefferson County. As a school psychologist, I am engaged in school-based counseling, psychoeducational testing including cognitive, executive functioning, adaptive, and social-emotional-behavioral assessments, writing and implementing Individualized Education Programs (IEPs), and consultation with parents and teachers. I was fortunate to have trained with leading researchers in the areas of learning disabilities and attentional disorders. While working in the Developmental Neuropsychology Clinic at the University of Denver, I trained with Dr. Bruce Pennington and Dr. Marge Riddle. I also trained with Dr. Bruce Bender while externing in the Pediatric Neuropsychology Clinic at National Jewish Health. Then, under a variety of mentors highly respected in their fields, I continued my assessment of learning, attentional, and developmental disabilities during my pre-doctoral internship in the Division of Behavioral & Developmental Pediatrics at the University of Maryland Medical Center.
