As a licensed psychologist and Nationally Certified School Psychologist, I am dedicated to empowering individuals, families, and communities to reach their fullest potential by cultivating understanding of individual and collective strengths and resilience. With a passion for empowering others, I have spent almost 20 years working with families in various capacities, including as a former public school teacher and school leader in Oakland, California, an educational consultant in Title I schools nationwide, and now as a clinical psychologist, founder of Fullchange Therapy, and speaker.
