Intellectual Disability Therapists in Highlands Ranch, CO

I focus on helping children, adolescents, and adults move forward. Problems that can get in the way of moving forward include education and behavior problems, ADD, autism, depression, anxiety, and trauma. Clinical tools include intellectual and psychological assessment and treatment interventions using cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), person centered therapy, or emotion focused therapy, which can guide you through to the goals you have set. We'll set these goals early in the session so that we can focus on achieving these goals.

Is your child or teen struggling to keep up in school?... Are they forgetful, disorganized or easily distracted?... Are they always on the move or constantly interrupting?...

As a part of the evaluation process, I will also identify targeted recommendations and practical solutions to support children and teens in reaching their potential.

Childhood is hard. Being a parent is hard. I work with individuals from infants (and their caregivers) to adults to help with these important and challenging life stages.

Through our work together, you will gain greater insight and understanding of these unhelpful cycles and your own life experiences, so you can create meaningful change in your life.
