Practice Information
I am a Licensed Educational Psychologist in California and credentialed School Psychologist in both California and Massachusetts. I have spent over 15 years in education, functioning in different capacities for school districts in Marin, Sonoma, and Contra Costa counties as well as in Newton, Massachusetts. I understand the world of learning differences and how frustrating and painful it can be to watch your child struggle. I have spent my career working with students and their families to help them navigate the often confusing spaces of assessment and special education. I have helped countless parents understand the complicated set of laws, rights, accommodations, and resources available for students with disabilities. I am passionate about being an ally for those who need help navigating the educational system.

Bio:
Having started my career in Sonoma County, I moved with my family to Boston and survived 7 long Boston winters before happily returning to the Golden State. I live in San Rafael with my husband and twin daughters. In my free time, I enjoy taking advantage of all San Francisco, Marin, and California have to offer, including jogging, hiking, and cheering on my beloved Niners and Warriors.
