I'm a psychologist with experience in individual, group and family therapy, behavior intervention and planning and administration of programs and services for people with mental health and developmental disabilities (including autism spectrum) issues. I also teach at the graduate university level.

I have been a 6th grade teacher, social worker, psychotherapist, behavior therapist and many things in between.

Other than that, I just love to write and dialog and figure out ways to help people.
