About
While I specialize in parenting techniques for young children, I also enjoy working with children, teens, and adults who feel "stuck," or are having difficulty managing family and social conflicts. I believe the therapeutic relationship is a powerful agent of change, and aim to provide a warm, safe, and casual space for clients to express themselves. I also encourage creative outlets for processing emotional issues, which might include drawing, painting or any other evidenced-based expressive techniques that relieve distress.
For individuals seeking assistance with young children, I am a certified Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) therapist and Within-Agency Trainer. I am currently certifying 3 clinicians in PCIT, and run a PCIT clinic (including training/supervision) with immediate openings.
PCIT is an evidence-based therapy for young children (ages 2.5 to 7 years old) who have disruptive and/or oppositional behaviors. As a PCIT therapist, I coach parents to use effective relationship and behavior management skills with their young children to reduce stress, and improve child behaviors.
