KKJ Forensic and Psychological Services

my interest in forensic psychology derives from my desire to ensure that people are treated justly and that everyone has the same opportunities. to me, justice emphasizes logic and weighing principles to determine moral rights and responsibilities. it also includes care reasoning which involves empathy and compassion; the ability to put yourself in someone else’s shoes. i want to know that my work and expertise is helping make a positive difference in the world. not many practitioners feel comfortable working within the legal system; therefore, i have brought together clinicians, and partner with other professionals, who provide people with opportunities for respectful conflict resolution. i also highly value mentoring and coaching, so providing opportunities for students in training, as well as new mental health professionals, who want to get established before making their own way in the world is an important component of my practice.
