Spark for Life Psychology is a place for children and families to be themselves, learn social skills in a neuro affirmative manner, and improve their general wellbeing. This mission aligns with my passions and past work experience.  I am passionate about tailoring psychological care to children's needs as well as promoting safe, culturally-responsive spaces for children to flourish. 

​

I have worked as a special education teacher, nanny, assistant teacher, and case manager on education plans. Through these roles, I have come to truly believe that neuro affirmative care is effective in promoting autonomous well-being for children and young people, particularly those of neurodiverse backgrounds. Through lived experience and working in the education system, I feel strongly about using strength-based approaches while working with children and families to motivate positive change.
