It’s not always easy to know when to seek help—but if your child is feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or struggling day-to-day, having a conversation can be a helpful way to sort through concerns and explore next steps. I’m a licensed school psychologist with experience supporting children and teens in both public and private settings with social, emotional, and learning challenges. Many parents I work with aren’t sure if what their child is going through is “serious enough”—you don’t have to figure that out alone. Please send me a message to schedule a free initial phone consultation.
I specialize in treating anxiety and related challenges. I’m trained in Yale’s SPACE program (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions) developed by Dr. Eli Leibowitz, a parent-based approach that helps families reduce anxiety-driven behaviors and build children’s confidence and independence.
I offer comprehensive psychoeducational evaluations when learning, attention, or emotional concerns may be affecting your child (ADHD, Dyslexia, Autism, etc.). This includes a thorough assessment, recommendations, and a clear feedback. Sometimes a conversation is all it takes to clarify how best to support your child and move forward with confidence.
