I am a licensed clinical psychologist dedicated to helping individuals, youth, and families utilize their own strengths to resolve difficult issues, and improve their relationships. Parenting, though rewarding, may still be one of the most difficult and challenging aspects of a person's life. It's easy to feel overwhelmed. I can provide support and guidance in order to address specific issues, and explore the conflicts and challenges causing you to seek help. I provide psychological treatment and evaluations in a nonjudgemental, safe environment.
I specialize in working with children and families struggling with issues related to autism, ADHD, divorce, anxiety, depression, and behavioral and school challenges.
My approach is strength-based and individualized to meet your needs.
