If you're stressed, worried, or just need a little support and guidance, please reach out! I specialize in Parent Consultation with some availability for individual therapy for teens and young adults who are comfortable working via Telehealth. I'm happy to address any concerns with one's child (of any age), including but not limited to: effective discipline strategies while maintaining positive relations; healthy co-parenting; stress of parenting; helping children through separation or divorce; best approaches in helping children manage/ease clinical conditions (anxiety, trauma, adjustment, mood disorders, ADHD, etc).
I have over 30 years of experience working with Children, Adolescents and Families and over 15 years as a clinical supervisor and Post Doctoral Resident Training Director. The last 26 years I worked in an integrated care/HMO setting which was invaluable, and I bring this breadth of experience with me in my own practice.
I love my career and appreciate all of my clients for their trust in me. I take a collaborative approach, bringing my expertise while respecting how well you know yourself and your child. Together we find strategies and next steps in easing the challenges you are facing. Reach out to discuss how I may support you in your goal for better health and relations.
