Early Childhood Mental Health Intern
I take a dual-generation approach when working with young children, leveraging the expertise of caregivers to best help their child. It takes a village to raise a child and I am honored to be trusted to walk alongside families and become part of their village.
I am currently finishing my Master’s degree at the University of Minnesota focusing on Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health, and have worked with young children in a variety of settings. I have experience as a preschool teacher, autism day treatment paraprofessional, and home visitor. These experiences have helped me appreciate both the joys and challenges of caring for young children and I hope that my continued work with families helps to amplify that joy for all involved.
