My family has called Blue Springs home for generations, and I’m proud to be a Wildcat from the graduating class of 2001. I stayed in-state to earn a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology at the University of Missouri-Rolla. After finding a super-cool spouse in Rolla, MO, life took us to the mid-south, where I earned my PhD in School Psychology at the University of Memphis.
My heart never strayed too far from Jackson, Co., as I’ve been perfecting my barbeque techniques and displaying my Chiefs super-fandom and love for the Royals ever since moving away. In 2025, our family (now with two kids) made the decision to move back to Blue Springs, so that we could open this clinic.
I have spent more than a decade engaging in clinical services for individuals with or suspected of having neurodevelopmental disorders, as well as for individuals with other psychological and mental health concerns. I am proud to provide comprehensive psychological and developmental testing and evaluation services for individuals from all walks of life.
I’m excited to be part of the community again, and our family is looking forward to re-establishing those deep roots. We’re here to help!
