As a clinical psychologist, I specialize in the assessment and treatment of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities. I believe in building genuine relationships with my patients and their families and working together to answer diagnostic questions and establish treatment objectives. My approach to care is centered around the strengths of the patient and grounded in evidence-based practices. Throughout the assessment process, I make it a priority to listen to and understand families' perspectives and ensure that the patient's contexts, values, and preferences are considered when discussing clinical presentation, family system functioning, and intervention recommendations. Ultimately, my goal is to ensure that families are heard, respected, and understood.
