Thrilled to have presented at my 1st international conference @FNDSociety in #Verona #Italy earlier this week! Excited to have finally met collaborators in person and learned so much while there! #FND
Looking forward to presenting as part of this presentation for @SPP_Rehab_SIG and @SPPDiv54 about life as a #pediatric #rehab #psychologist #thisispedspsych
Sometimes, being a supervisor can be a challenging and thankless job and I constantly wonder how I can be doing more for my trainees. But, moments like these make everything worth it 😭 Excuse me while I go wipe my eyes.
First #grandrounds in the books! Happy to be able to present on the integral role of #pediatric #psychologists in hospital settings. #thisispedspsych
Yes to all of this! There are so many hats to wear during graduate school. Happy to be on the other side of graduate school now.

We recently got sound machines for all of our personal offices. Had a momentary lapse of memory and forgot I plugged mine in. Couldn’t figure out where the sound of birds chirping was coming from 😂

In 2020, I completed my #pediatricpsychology #internship.
Today, just a few years later, I’m thrilled to be (virtually) attending this conference as we work to build a #psychology #internship.

Simply an #AppreciationPost for my favorite humans who always know how to make challenging days a little bit easier and can always bring a smile to my face 😊
1. Out of curiosity regarding why we do what we do and to help kids/families in times of need.
2. Forming connections w/ kids/families & seeing their progress. Plus - I love working on multidisciplinary teams! + mentoring future psychologists! #PsychologyWeek
Two questions for all of the psychologists out there...
1. Why did you become a psychologist?
2. What is the best part about your job?
#PsychologyWeek
During #PsychologyWeek I’m reflecting on one of the best pieces of advice I’ve received from a mentor: Write first, edit later.
Solid advice that applies to both academic & personal writing. You can’t edit something if there’s nothing to edit.
As a psychologist, I am surrounded by some of the kindest, least judgmental, most practical & rationale, genuine individuals. I am so thankful that my circle is made up of so many of these incredible individuals who work tirelessly to improve the lives of others daily.
Why does psychology matter to you? Say it loud for the people in the back! #PsychologyWeek
