About Me
I am a licensed psychologist based in Sugar Land, Texas and I specialize in evidence-based treatments for children and adolescents. For the past eight years, I've had the privilege of supporting youth and their families through life's challenges. I have extensive experience helping youth with autism spectrum disorders, ADHD, behavioral difficulties, anxiety, and depression.
My approach to therapy is from a developmental and cognitive-behavioral framework. Treatment is grounded in evidence-based therapies including CBT, DBT, ACT, PCIT, and ERP - tailored to meet each child's unique needs. I provide autism evaluations using gold-standard assessments (ADOS-2), as well as comprehensive psychological, and psycho-educational evaluations for children and adolescents. I have delivered treatments across a wide range of settings including hospitals, schools, primary care, and community mental health centers.
​
I am passionate about partnering with families to foster resilience, emotional growth, and lasting change. I believe therapy should feel safe, collaborative, and even a little playful. I am here to help your family move toward a happier, more connected future.

Background & Training
I earned my doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the University of Houston, where I was awarded the National Research Service Award for my contributions to clinical research.​ ​My predoctoral internship was completed at Baylor College of Medicine, with a primary rotation at DePelchin Children’s Center. I continued my training with a postdoctoral fellowship at UTHealth in the Department of Pediatrics, where I developed clinical programming for an intensive outpatient program focused on integrated care for youth with chronic medical conditions.
