Molly Jacobi, BA

Clinical Extern

I am a third-year doctoral student in the School Psychology PsyD program at the Graduate School of Applied and Professional Psychology at Rutgers University and clinical extern at Growing Minds Psychology.

My passion for working with children with neurodevelopmental disabilities began during my time as a teaching assistant in specialized schools. These experiences laid the foundation for my dedication to collaboration and consultation with parents and teachers. 

Through both clinical training and classroom experience, I have witnessed the powerful impact of comprehensive assessment, appropriate educational placement, and evidence-based interventions. I aim to use my background in schools to help families navigate the education system and access the resources needed to ensure that their children thrive.

In my free time, I enjoy cooking, playing with my cat, and traveling.
