I have provided individual, group, couples and family therapy in both school settings as well as private practice settings since the onset of my career. I utilize behavioral management tools, cognitive behavioral therapy, and creative therapies to encourage and teach children as well as adults, how to increase their sense of self and learn how to celebrate their strengths and weaknesses. I feel strongly that children respond best when they are free to explore their feelings creatively as opposed to solely participating in talk therapy. I help clients feel accountable and more importantly, recognize they have the ability to grow.

Children are multifaceted, and their evaluations should be too. After reviewing many psychoeducational evaluations that failed to identify the needs of children accurately, I developed a holistic approach with a clinical psychologist to offer nuanced & comprehensive evaluations. This approach enables me to gain an accurate understanding of your child's unique nature & complexities to help facilitate a plan for their present/future needs. Evaluations cover all aspects of development & outline needs & capabilities in the home, community, & school settings. Evaluations are also available for college students requesting accommodations.
