As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I have focused my clinical skills, knowledge, and training on providing mental health services to neurodivergent individuals, particularly autistic people. I’m excited to share my expertise in a way that will provide support to children and adolescents who are siblings of autistic people. I also have experience supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, and ADHD. I apply a strength-based approach to my practice, nurtures and develops strong therapeutic relationships with clients, and apply Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques in my work with children and teens.

In my work with children and teens I apply a strength-based approach to my practice, nurture and develop strong therapeutic relationships with clients, and apply cognitive-behavioral therapeutic techniques through a neurodiversity-affirming lens to ensure that masking is not promoted.

I received my Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology from the University of Maryland, College Park in 2016. Additionally, I received my Masters in Social Work from the University of Maryland at Baltimore in 2019 with a specialization in families and children. I work at Ivymount School as a Mental Health Provider where I’m a Mental Health Specialist in the Aspire School Program, Academic & Applied Model, with elementary, middle, and high school aged students.
