I have a passion for working with children with Autism, ADHD, Anxiety, and a variety of developmental delays. I love coaching parents and teachers to better foster healthy development in children, and enjoy helping children to more fully understand and regulate their emotions. I have a history of working with children of all ages in their “natural” environments of home and school, and enjoy seeing the fruits of their hard work play out in their day to day lives.

I believe the key in helping children to develop healthy behaviors is to answer the question “Why?”  through assessments to better understand the whole child.  I believe that early understanding and intervention of developmental and academic delays are key to helping children be the best versions of themselves and to set them on a positive trajectory for growth. 

I view children in terms of the family unit. Having a better understanding of how a child functions within their family environment is helpful in assessment and treatment planning.  A full picture of the child, within the context of their specific family, can help parents to better assist their child’s growth and development.  

In my free time, I enjoying spending time with my teenage daughter, worshiping and serving at my church, reading, watching TCU football, and of course…playing with Archer.

Archer enjoys spending his days sleeping in his crate, nesting his dog toys, and sometimes hiding packaged snacks around the house. He loves long walks around the neighborhood, especially when he gets to run into his friends. He’s a master of howling, and takes his job as back-up singer to nearby fire trucks and tornado sirens very seriously.
