**NO AVAILABILITY UNTIL JULY 2023** I specialize in psychological evaluations, pscyho-ed evaluations, ADHD , behavioral, and other assessments. In fact, my practice is exclusively focussed on testing and consultative services. I DO NOT PROVIDE THERAPY SERVICES. Have you or your child been diagnosed with many different disorders and, despite therapy, nothing works? Is your child struggling in school and you are concerned about an attentional issue or learning problem? Has your therapist or prescriber recommended testing? These are some of the areas in which testing may be warranted.

Thank you for taking the first steps in working towards emotional healing. I have experiencing collaborating with individuals, couples, and families from diverse backgrounds with a wide range of needs. My approach is Client-Centered and I include aspects of Cognitive Behavioral as well as Solution-Focused therapies into my work. When working with children, I incorporate play therapy, include sandplay, into my sessions in order to engage clients and create a comfortable environment for therapy.

My private assessment practice, Hope Assessments, was designed to provide psychological, psychoeducational, and school-based neuropsychological evaluations. I am able to provide these services either in office, in the client's home, or in some cases, remotely. I am also a Nationally Certified School Psychologist, and Diplomate of the American Board of School Neuropsychology, and Board Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA).

I feel comfortable bringing my own life experiences into the counseling relationship. This helps me relate to my clients and connect genuinely. I do not see myself as an expert but as an objective helper who can reflect on what the client is going through, provide validation and understanding and then gently challenge clients to change patterns and make changes for progress. I enjoy being a partner with my clients to come up with strategies to manage the challenges they face. We all need a place to feel safe, listened to, and seen. I provide that space for clients and their families.

I have a PhD in Psychology. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker trained in a variety of treatment modalities to provide diagnostic and therapeutic services to young adults, adults, couples and families. My practice addresses issues of depression, anxiety, addiction, stress, trauma, self-esteem, relationships, life transitions, compulsive disorders and grief. I help people who have problems with addictive behaviors. Working with family members who are affected by the addiction of a loved one is part of my mental health practice.

I greatly enjoy working with adolescents and adults with anxiety, depression, postpartum anxiety/depression, mood disorders, self-esteem, and body image issues. My styIe is to really get to know a client and understand their perspective to help them achieve their goals.

“The greater the difficulty, the more glory in surmounting it.” I have worked as a child clincal psychologist since 2011. Prior to this I received my master’s in clinical health psychology. I have had wonderful opportunities to work in numerous settings to help children and families. I have a vast amount of clinical experience with a range of difficulties including anxiety, depression, and behavioral challenges. In addition to my clinical work, I conduct clinical training for other child therapists as well as serving as a consultant to early childhood providers.

In my practice, I look to build a strong and trusting rapport with clients. We are then able to work together on identifying potential sources of life stressors as well as strengths. In exploring these areas, clients are able to identify and modify previous patterns of behavior in order to achieve their full potential personally, academically, and/or vocationally.

I enjoy working with children and families to address their unique circumstances and challenges. I work with children of all ages, from early childhood through adolescence. I enjoy supporting parents as they manage the ups and downs of parenting children of all ages. I work from a stregnths-based perspective and believe that client motivation to participate actively in therapy is a great indicator of success. I utilize evidence-based treatments including cognitive-behavioral therapy, trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy, and Parent-Child Interaction Therapy to treat anxiety, depression, stress, and challenging behavior.

My approach to therapy is first to fully understand your difficulties and then work with you to find the best ways to make changes that promote growth and personal fulfillment. I believe that it is crucial for you to feel that therapy is a safe space where together we can explore, examine, and be curious about your experiences and your relationships with other people. In my years of practicing, I have found that many distressing symptoms (such as anxiety and depression) often disappear when people have the opportunity to look closely at their relationships with others.

Raising children and being married can be the most wonderful, yet humbling things in life. Over the past 25 years I have worked with hundreds of families and couples to help you customize a roadmap of change that can help you with hope and practical strategies to decrease conflict, set limits, restore nurturance, and maneuver the difficulties of being a parent, married or divorced. Helping people make change and heal from hurt is my life's passion and finding a therapist that is a good fit with the right expertise can be difficult! Call me to see if I can help.

It takes courage to seek outside assistance. I offer an attentive, personal, and supportive environment and approach to behavioral health treatment. I have expertise in working with children and adolescents, and the people in their lives. My approach tends to be short-term and solution-focused.

I understand how hard it is to sort through a list of names to find someone with whom you are comfortable talking. Clients often tell me that they felt at ease in our first phone contact. I love what I do; helping individuals and families understand and learn healthy ways to cope with issues like depression, anxiety, troubled relationships, & loss, and to make lasting changes in their personal lives. So many people feel overwhelmed and don't know where or how to start and it can be as simple as calling to set up the first appointment.
