I am a clinical psychologist and practice owner of Adaptive Health Psychology PLLC. I offer therapy services as well as evaluations to support youth toward better health. I work with children, adolescents, and young adults who may experience difficulties with worry, anxiety, emotion regulation difficulties, stressors, chronic pain, ADHD, perfectionism, or grief, among others. I have advanced training working with youth with chronic and acute medical conditions.
Compassionate care, collaborative work, and evidence based intervention are the cornerstones of my practice. Youth should experience fewer mental health symptoms, an improved quality of life, and progress toward goals through therapeutic services.
Navigating childhood, adolescence, parenting, and young adulthood is challenging. It does not have to be done alone. It is my privilege to guide individuals towards improved well-being and teach them necessary skills, frameworks, and tools to cope with life's challenges.
