I believe in providing empirically based treatment that is tailored to meet the needs of each individual client. I employ the scientific principles of Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) in all areas of my clinical practice to promote desirable behavior change.

I completed my undergraduate degree in Psychology at Carroll College in Waukesha Wisconsin and my master degree in Counseling Psychology at Valparaiso University in Valparaiso, Indiana. I completed the coursework for Board Certification in Behavior Analysis at Southern Illinois University and supervision requirements with Daniel Moran, PhD, BCBA. I was a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in Indiana, where I co-owned and operated a successful behavior therapy and mental health services company for 4 years prior to relocating to Oregon. I am currently a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Oregon.

I have provided clinical and behavioral services to adults and children with a variety of disorders since 1997 while working closely with Licensed Psychologists and Doctorate level Board Certified Behavior Analysts. I specialize in developing, implementing, and monitoring intensive ABA/AVB programs for children and adults with developmental disabilities and extreme behavioral challenges. I also have extensive experience treating other clinical disorders using the principles of ABA.
