I have almost 30 years of experience providing psychological assessment and therapeutic services to individuals across the age span. I employ a strengths-based approach to working with my clients. My philosophy is that both assessments and therapy are most effective when they are a collaborative process, allowing clients to build upon their resources to achieve their goals. My treatment focuses on developmental, behavioral, and emotional challenges including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, anxiety, depression, autism spectrum disorders, social deficits/differences, disruptive behavior, and relationship difficulties.
I use a variety of evidence-based treatments, including cognitive behavior therapy and parent coaching models. My background in both clinical and school psychology and my experience working in both public and private schools gives me a unique perspective in working with children and adolescents.
I look forward to hearing from you. Please email or call with any questions or for a free phone consultation to determine if my practice is a good fit for the services you are seeking.
