Consultation Services

I am passionate about increasing access for mental health services for older adults, and I love to share my knowledge with other mental health providers. I completed my clinical internship with a focus in Geropsychology, followed by a yearlong postdoctoral fellowship in Geropsychology. If you have questions about a client of yours dealing with age-related changes, dementia, caregiving, or resources for older adults, please reach out to me. I have quick fliers/resources I can send you to point you in the right direction, or we can schedule a Consultation appointment. Reach out to me for more details about Consultation appointments.
