I was a 7-8th grade classroom teacher for five years before I went back to school to become a school psychologist. After 10 years working in the school districts, I got my LEP so that I could work with kids and families in the private setting. I am also a yoga instructor with a specialty in children's yoga, and in my practice I incorporate mindfulness, breath work and yoga as well as therapy techniques in my work with kids. I find that this balance of using the body and mind helps kids connect better to the work, and makes it more engaging. I do a lot of parent counseling as well to support parents trying to help their child with their mental health. In addition, I work as an advocate for families in the school setting as they navigate the IEP/504 process. For kids with anxiety, depression, ADHD, autism, or emotional dysregulation, my goal is to help kids and parents feel more relaxed and in control of their feelings and actions.
