At her private practice, she specializes in neuropsychological and forensic evaluations for youth and adults who present with a variety of clinical issues including learning disorders, developmental disorders, neurocognitive disorders, mood and anxiety disorders, trauma and stressor-related disorders, co-occurring substance use disorders, and personality disorders. Her clinical experiences include working in inpatient psychiatric settings, school-based settings, outpatient hospitals and clinics and also in legal settings as an expert witness. She currently serves as consulting neuropsychologist to several residential treatment programs and conducts clinical trainings for Los Angeles Department of Mental Health (LADMH). In past years, she served as a neuropsychological trainer for the Center for Disease Control (CDC) Legacy for Children and as a cognitive-behavioral therapy trainer on the Community Partners in Care Project.

She publishes in national and International psychological journals and writes chapter contributions for mental health textbooks. Her first trade book titled Stop Self-Sabotage, published by HarperCollins in 2019, details an evidence-supported six-step program to achieving goals.
