Biography

Dr. Marshall joined ACES in 2020 and has over 25 years of experience working with individuals with mild to complex disabilities. Currently she serves a full spectrum of pediatric adult clients, including individuals who are hearing, hard of hearing, and deaf and individuals who identify as LBGTQIA+.   At this time, Dr. Marshall is primarily focused on providing psychological evaluations within both private and treatment settings.  She addresses referral questions related to giftedness, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Anxiety, Mood Disorders, Post-traumatic stress, and Learning differences.  She employs a person-centered approach that is focused on identifying individuals’ strengths and needs to provide recommendations and resources to help them be successful in their lives and to feel connected and valued.

Prior to joining ACES, Dr. Marshall worked within a psychiatric treatment facility from 1996-2004 providing psychological assessments, therapy, consultation, and supervision in outpatient, day treatment, residential, and acute programs.  From 2004-2020, Dr. Marshall served many roles, both clinical and administrative, within a private not-for-profit behavioral health organization.  In addition to providing and overseeing direct clinical services, she was also  involved in creating and implementing best practices related to trauma-informed care, non-aversive crisis management, and outcomes optimization.  Dr. Marshall has conducted training, presentations, and clinical consultations nationally and internationally on a variety of topics, including deafness and child mental health, Autism, evidence-based data-driven processes, and trauma-informed practices.
Dr. Marshall is one of the first graduates of the Gallaudet University Clinical Psychology program.  She is a hearing psychologist who is fluent in American Sign Language (ASL) and has basic proficiency in Cued Speech.  She is a member of the Virginia Network of Consultants (VNOC) supporting local school divisions with services for their students who are deaf and hard of hearing.  She has also provided services to this population through the Virginia School for the Deaf and Blind, Regions Hospital in St. Paul, Minnesota, and, currently, through the Virginia Department of Aging and Rehabilitative Services (DARS).
Dr. Marshall balances her work time with creative arts hobbies, music, camping, and spending time with her family.
