If you have tried everything and still feel misunderstood or unseen, I can help. Maybe you’ve sought different kinds of support or guidance but nothing has fully explained what you’re experiencing. I provide psychological testing for ADHD, Autism, mood, and behavioral challenges for adults, teens, and children to help you gain clarity, feel validated, and understand yourself more deeply. It’s a privilege to help you embrace who you are, live your most authentic self, feel seen, supported, and more connected in ways that work for you. My goal is to empower you and highlight your strength as you move forward with confidence.
I also provide psychotherapy for women 50+ navigating divorce, retirement, empty nesting, grief, and challenges with adult children. I support children and teens, especially dancers, facing performance anxiety, injury recovery, and perfectionism. My culturally responsive, evidence-based approach honors your lived experience and offers practical strategies.
I believe in creating a warm, culturally responsive space where you feel safe, understood, and truly valued. My approach is grounded in empathy and curiosity, and I am committed to honoring your unique story and lived experiences. Whether you are seeking personal insight, or working toward emotional wellness, I am here to support you every step of the way.

Our assessments look beyond surface symptoms to explore strengths, challenges, personality, and context.
