As a clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience, I specialize in working with individuals, couples, and families who have been impacted by complex trauma. We are shaped most profoundly by our earliest and closest relationships, and when those relationships have been fraught with chronic adversity – either due to neglect and abuse, or due to unintentional or unavoidable life adversity – we tend to struggle emotionally, behaviorally, and interpersonally with the impact of early life trauma exposure. Treatment is most effective when one is able to find a safe space to identify the root of those struggles.

They feel that my knowledge and holistic approach to treatment will provide them with a healthier pathway forward in their life.

To facilitate change I employ a range of focused DBT and CBT strategies that I also teach to younger clinicians who train with my practice.

The inevitable challenges associated with parenting a learning disabled child may be rich opportunities for personal growth. We explore these opportunities in a structured, and supportive group environment. Participation in a parent support group provides three forms of support: 1) Time/space for reflection; 2) Supportive feedback from other parents who have had similar experiences; 3) Essential information (e.g., how do I set limits with my child, how can I support my child with her reading difficulties?). Parent support groups are semi-structured, with guided activities and time for focused conversation. Meetings are held on site or via Zoom.
My expertise is working with children, adolescents, and adults who struggle with some aspect of learning or who have learning disabilities. Is your child struggling to learn to read? Does your child struggle to work up to her potential? Does your child struggle to complete his school work in the allotted time? Is your child smart, yet, he does not seem to be engaged in school? Does your child struggle to pay attention in school, or when completing homework? Does your child need help in school, but you have been told that she does not qualify for services? Are you in disagreement with the school's evaluation of your child?
This group is for adults who struggle with disorganization, have trouble staying on task, and may suspect they have Attention Deficit Disorder or have been diagnosed.
