Meet Our Providers
While our team’s credentials and experience speak for themselves, perhaps the strength our clients appreciate most is our warm, empathic, and approachable style.

Specializing in neuropsychology for children and teens, I received my PhD in clinical and educational psychology from the University of Southern California, where I was also an associate professor.

Shortly after completing my psychology degree at Cal State Fullerton, I joined Well Family in 2009 as a cognitive trainer and executive assistant to Dr. Eaton.

I enjoy the varied aspects of my role, from supporting our talented and compassionate client-facing staff to managing our business development. We are so fortunate to have amazing clients, and I am continually impressed by their strength, resilience, and kindness.
