Licensed Educational Psychologist #4778
Hi, I'm Erin Parnell. I have been working in education for over 18 years, beginning my career as an instructional assistant for students on the Autism spectrum, delivering therapy in-home and in-classroom before becoming a school psychologist. I earned my Masters and Education Specialist degree from Sacramento State and I have practiced school psychology in the greater Roseville area for 13 years. For the past 5 years I have worked in the homeschool/independent study charter school setting focusing on preventative mental health education. My work is grounded in positive psychology and strength-based, practical approaches to improving behavior and mental health to maximize learning and vocational outcomes.
I believe there are no specific qualifications needed to help a child thrive. What matters most are the caring adults that seek the knowledge and skills they need to foster meaningful relationships and create supportive environments.
