Founder & President

When our son Eric was diagnosed with autism at 29 months, everything changed for my wife Polly and me. We had to help our child, and the way forward was unclear. There were forks in the road, and well-meaning people offered  conflicting advice. What to do about school, about therapy, about planning for the future — it seemed overwhelming. 


But we dug in.  Eric received ABA, went to school, and, with the help of too many to name, learned and grew.  It wasn't always the experience that our friends with typically-developing children had, but as he grew, our hope did, too. 


Now it’s 19 years later,  and Eric is working towards having a job.  He also sings, plays tennis, and like other young adults, is finding his place in the world. Along the way, we got involved, we learned more, and now we’ve had the opportunity to found New Connections. It is my profound hope that New Connections can be a source of help and of hope for families just like my own.

Clinical Director MEd, BCBA, LBA

As a BCBA with over 18 years experience working with neurodivergent individuals, I am dedicated to teaching and empowering my clients and their families. 


After graduating with a bachelor's degree from Elon University and a Masters from Vanderbilt (where I also met my husband!), I worked for nine years at Metro Nashville Public Schools as a behavior analyst, supporting both students and their teachers and support staff. 


With my combined experience in the school setting and private practice, I've been able to pursue my passion--to help improve our clients' quality of life through behavior management and skill development. 


Outside of work, I'm the mom of two boys, and I enjoy traveling with my family, spending time with friends, and teaching children to read (a particular joy of mine).


Whether working with kids, families, or schools, I am committed to making a positive and lasting impact through collaboration, skill-building, and compassionate care.

Stay Current


Diagnoses such as autism are extremely difficult and often devastating for families. We know this because we’ve lived it ourselves. All facets of family life are affected. Activities such as going to a restaurant, attending church, or taking a vacation are made exponentially more difficult. Friendships can be hard to maintain, marriages suffer, and stress can be unrelenting and overwhelming. We are committed to working with families to make and execute a successful plan, because at New Connections we know there is hope for better days ahead.

How We Help


Working with our families, we assess each client and incorporate family goals and input into designing each individual program. Intensive 1:1 therapy sessions can then take place in our clinic or in a client’s home.Upon teaching new skills and behaviors, we place a strong emphasis on generalizing into home, school, and community settings. We are especially dedicated to partnering with schools, churches, and others in the community to benefit and serve our clients.
