I believe that every child, adolescent, and young adult deserves the opportunity to thrive. My passion is helping families uncover their child’s unique strengths and challenges while offering practical solutions and compassionate support tailored to their needs.
As a Licensed Pediatric Clinical Neuropsychologist, I specialize in conducting neuropsychological and psychoeducational evaluations for children with academic and behavioral difficulties, complex medical or developmental histories, and brain injuries or concussions. My evaluations provide detailed, accessible reports with actionable recommendations for academic accommodations, therapeutic interventions, and other supports.
I am also dedicated to early intervention, helping young people overcome anxiety and OCD by equipping them with effective strategies to confidently face their worries and fears. My approach emphasizes building a strong therapeutic relationship to foster trust and growth. I want to help improve family dynamics by guiding youth toward happier, better functioning, and a successful future life.
My ultimate goal is to empower families with the tools and insights to enhance their child’s academic, emotional, and social well-being. I work closely with families, schools, and medical professionals to create tailored interventions and ensure every child has the support they need to succeed.
As a part of the Coping Resource Center’s mission, I strive to deliver compassionate, comprehensive care to individuals and families.
If you are seeking an evaluation or therapy services for your child, adolescent, or young adult, I would be honored to support your family. Together, we can create a plan that fosters growth and well-being. I also offer a complimentary 15-minute consultation to determine if my services are the right fit for your needs.

Life Outside Of Work
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife, three children, and our pet parrot, Rosie. I am passionate about fitness, particularly jogging, and I prioritize healthy eating habits.
In graduate school, I co-founded Black Students in Psychology (BSIP), an initiative focused on mentoring undergraduate students toward scholastic achievement.
I also value volunteering within my church community and am continually fascinated by the complexities of human behavior, which drive my dedication to this field.
