I specialize in treating anxiety. Sometimes this anxiety looks like constant worrying and feeling powerless over racing thoughts. Perhaps the anxiety is around food, eating, or body image. Maybe you feel overwhelmed with self-consciousness in social situations or held back by phobias or avoiding triggers. Anxiety-related issues show up in a myriad of ways. If you recognize yourself in these examples, you need the right psychological tools and a supportive professional to guide you.

If you are a parent of a child with a disability, you know firsthand that in order for your child to receive the best education possible, you will have to advocate for them at some point in their school career. While many families feel they can advocate on their own, never-ending changes in special education law, confusing paperwork, jargon, and at times resistance from your child’s school can make this near impossible. Having an advocate to assist in determining your child’s rights can be very valuable; not only from a legal perspective, but also by reducing the stress or intimidation parents may feel.
