I knew as early as the 7th grade that I wanted to be a psychologist. I pursued this passion with an undergraduate cum laude degree in psychology from Loyola University in Chicago, followed by M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in clinical psychology from Auburn University where my training addressed both adult and child populations. My post-graduate training allowed me to further hone my interests in doing family therapy.

I stumbled into my second passion, working with deaf and hard of hearing people, in 1981 and have continued to provide mental health services to these groups in a variety of settings across the U.S. I am fluent in American Sign Language and strongly believe that patients receive the best care when they can communicate directly with their doctor. In addition to the work I do in my practice with deaf people, I also serve as a consultant and team member to the Cochlear Implant Program at the Dell Children’s Medical Center.

My other areas of professional interest include the field of Collaborative Divorce and the New Ways for Families program, both of which offer compassionate and successful ways of helping children and families.

I hold dual licenses in the state of Texas, as both a Licensed Psychologist and a Licensed Specialist in School Psychology. I have over 30 years experience in the mental health field and for 20 of those years have maintained a private practice in Austin, Texas.

I work with children, teens, adults and families, and provide a warm, empathic and supportive environment in which clients can reach their goals and go on to lead more satisfying and rewarding lives. My work with children and adolescents is recognized for its inclusive approach, and I team closely with parents, schools and other professionals to maximize the treatment’s success.

I am a big-city, mid-western girl who found her way from Chicago to small-town Alabama, to the mountains of Napa Valley, before settling in the rolling hills of Austin in 1999. I balance my passion for my work by going off the grid to read, practice yoga and meditation, play with my dogs, and hike in one of America’s National Parks. You’ll find me rooting for the Chicago Cubs during baseball season, but it’s all about college football in the Fall, when I’ll be spending many a Saturday watching Auburn games with friends.
