Clinical Interests
My clinical interests broadly include working with youth with chronic primary and secondary pain conditions. I am particularly interested in multidisciplinary intervention with youth with comorbid pain and sleep presentations, GYN populations, and youth from marginalized and undertreated communities.
Care Philosophy
My overarching goal is to prevent youth from developing chronic pain in the first place, and to collaborate with youth with current pain and their families to get them back to doing valued activities along the way to pain relief.
