I have been working in the field of psychology for over a decade and am still as passionate and fascinated by it since the day I set out on this journey.

I took my first psychology class as a senior in high school over 20 years ago and haven’t looked back since. I graduated with my Bachelor’s in Psychology from The University of Kansas and my Master’s in Counseling Psychology from Avila University here in Kansas City.

After 7 years working in the field as a Licensed Masters Level Psychologist (KS), in 2019, I returned to school to earn my Doctorate (PsyD) in Clinical Psychology from Kansas City University. My doctoral clinical training included a variety of experiences, including forensic psychology, child developmental psychology, and neurodevelopmental assessment services. I completed my internship at The Guidance Center, a Certified Community Behavioral Health Center in northeastern Kansas, followed by a postdoctoral fellowship in Child Clinical Psychology back at my original alma mater, The University of Kansas (go Jayhawks!), where I specialized in neurodevelopmental assessment and clinical therapy for children and adolescents.
