Get To Know Me
In what ways have your personal experiences influenced your work with your clients?
I became interested in Neurodiversity and LBGTQIA+ because of family members. I found myself learning as quickly as I could and wanting to help others who needed support. I saw kids in the school district being treated poorly (and against district policy) when exploring gender identity. I saw kids struggling with their neurodiversity because classrooms were sometimes restrictive and assumed neurotypicality. I wanted to help kids learn to love their wonderful creative brains and focus on their strengths and "superpowers." I wanted to teach kids of all ages and abilities how to regulate their emotions and how to use coping skills and communication to make their paths through school and childhood easier.

Education
University of Washington, Master of Education, Policy, 2013 — I use this degree often as well, and worked in Special Education administration. My internship was at the Pacific Science Center and I studied educator-scientist partnerships. I also did work on gifted education.
I did all the coursework for another degree as a school psychologist but did not complete the degree (at Eastern) for personal reasons.
Claremont Graduate University, Master of Arts, Psychology, 1993 — My degree is in psychology and this was a research degree, but I use much of what I learned every day with clients. My Master's Thesis was on Multiple Intelligences. I was in the Ph.D program but after I advanced to candidacy, I made a choice based on family concerns to end before I finished my Ph.D
Work HistoryI began working as a lecturer at the college and graduate levels, but soon found my interests leading me toward gifted education and then special education. I worked at schools and in administration, and on a task force for gifted education at Seattle Public Schools, then as a board member with the Northwest Gifted Child Association. I found my interest in neurodiversity here and attempted a degree in School Psychology but found it was not a good fit for me, and wanted to do more counseling to help kids in schools and those homeschooled. Ultimately I started working in Drug Addiction and Counseling, but found my way to Mental Health Counseling and found I had been right at the age of 12, when I first wanted to be a therapist. Fortunately in all of that time the field moved toward evidence-based therapy techniques, which was a factor I found missing before and it spoke to my research background.
