Simonie Grabowski, M.A. is a fourth-year student in the Clinical Psychology Doctoral Program at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. She completed her undergraduate education at Messiah University in Mechanicsburg, PA, where she majored in Psychology. Prior to graduate school, Simonie served as a rehabilitation specialist at a community-based transitional age program for young adults with chronic and persistent mental illness, a research assistant on an National Institutes of Health-funded research study at a center for maltreated children, and an in-home family-based counselor for children and adolescents at risk of out-of-home placement. Her work as a family-based counselor led to an interest in working with individuals with neurodevelopmental disorders. In graduate school, Simonie’s clinical training has included psychological assessment and intervention with youth and a focus in the area of neurodevelopmental conditions. Ultimately, Simonie hopes to use her training in clinical psychology and Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental Disabilities and Related Disorders (LEND) to provide evidence-based assessments and psychotherapy with children and families. She hopes to have a positive impact on the lives of neurodiverse children and their families and contribute to maximizing their potential.
