Founded on the belief that every child — and every family — deserves access to expert, compassionate neurodevelopmental care.
I know how overwhelming it can feel when you're worried about your child. Maybe you've noticed they're struggling in ways that don't quite make sense, or you're searching for answers that feel just out of reach. As a mom and a pediatric psychologist, I understand that behind every question about your child is a parent who loves them deeply and wants to see them flourish.
My passion is helping families like yours discover how your child's unique brain works — because when we understand the "why" behind their behaviors and challenges, we can unlock their incredible potential together.
"You'll never feel rushed. You'll always feel heard. And you'll walk away with clear answers and practical strategies that actually work."
My training includes several specialized credentials that support comprehensive neurodevelopmental evaluation. The combination of school psychology and behavioral analysis backgrounds provides perspective on both academic and behavioral aspects of development.
PhD in School Psychology
Doctoral training focused on learning, development, and educational systems, with specific emphasis on assessment and intervention
Specialized Fellowships
Pediatric psychology and behavioral health fellowships providing deep clinical experience
My practice is dedicated to neurodevelopmental evaluation, which allows for focused experience with children presenting with learning, behavioral, and developmental concerns.
For years, families in Southern Minnesota had to drive 90+ minutes to the Twin Cities or other metropolitan areas for comprehensive neurodevelopmental evaluations. They faced $3,500–$5,000 costs and 6–12 month wait times.
I created Clarity Assessments to bring this specialized expertise to our community — providing the same gold-standard assessment tools and comprehensive service at a more accessible price point, with much shorter wait times, right here in Mankato.
I believe every child has unique strengths and challenges that deserve to be fully understood. My evaluations go beyond checking boxes — I take time to understand your child as a whole person.
Every family who walks through our door is treated with warmth, respect, and genuine care. We understand the courage it takes to seek answers.
We never rush. Every evaluation is comprehensive, evidence-based, and tailored to the individual. We take the time to get it right.
Our reports are written in plain language that families can actually understand and use. No jargon, no confusion — just clear, actionable insights.
We don't just hand you a report and send you on your way. We walk alongside you, helping communicate with schools and connecting you with resources.
When not at work, I love spending time with my family, friends, and getting out in nature in our beautiful river valley here in Mankato!
Let's discover your child's path to success, together.
