Has your child or adolescent’s behavior suddenly changed? Has your family undergone recent changes that could have impacted your child? Does your child appear more anxious since the pandemic? Has your child withdrawn from family, friends, or school? The demands for psychological services for children and adolescent mental health are at an all-time high, especially within the Las Vegas community. As a licensed psychologist, former educator/school counselor, and member of the Las Vegas community for the past 24 years I have an expansive understanding of the needs of children, adolescents, and families.
My expertise is in the evaluation and treatment of children and adolescents with depression, anxiety, severe behavioral disorders, substance abuse disorders, ADHD, and trauma related disorders. Due to my extensive training in child custody evaluations, I am competent in matters related to parental competency, divorce and the effects on children.
I am psychodynamically trained and provide treatment from a trauma-informed perspective. I utilize various modalities, including cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, or dialectical behavior therapy. My work in the Juvenile Justice system and in the schools has provided me the opportunity to understand mental health symptoms in children.
