I recently published a story with the Conversation Canada highlighting my masters work. Check out the article below! @WesternU @westernuPsych theconversation.com/treating… via @ConversationCA
Treating specific symptoms of autism or ADHD can help children, even without a diagnosis

Treating specific symptoms of autism or ADHD can help children, even without a diagnosis

Not every child with mental health difficulties has a diagnosis. An approach that focuses on symptoms rather than diagnostic labels can help support children who could benefit from treatment.

Just threw away all my GRE prep notebooks. I realized that my dream of sharing all my knowledge about special triangles with my department will never come true. It was time. For reference, I am almost in the third year of my PhD. #phdlife #AcademicTwitter @AcademicChatter

My car, laptop, and speakers all decided to break within the same month. This coupled with the current state of the world has me physically and emotionally poor. Is the world testing me? Yes. The answer is yes. #crying

Accidentally wrote “fear” instead of “dear” in my response to revisions. I think this perfectly demonstrates how afraid I am of this editor ...#AcademicChatter
