Does your child seem depressed, anxious, hostile or irritable? Is he or she underachieving or misbehaving at school? Are you having power struggles at home? Is divorce stressing your family? You are doing the best you can, however, you need more guidance and support to improve your family's life? I'm here for you. I'll teach you and your child effective coping skills to reduce stress and increase well being and happiness in your family. I will coach you how to be both firm and kind so that you are an effective parent who feels empowered and hopeful.
My specialty is children and family mental health: Depression, anxiety disorders (like panic, social anxiety, and OCD), grief, adjustment to divorce, disrupted attachment, breakdown in family communication and problem behaviors as in ADHD/ADD. I have extensive experience teaching parenting classes. I use CBT, ACT, Solution Focused and Mindfulness therapies.
My approach is respectful, warm and practical. I believe that both you and your child need to be heard and supported. I provide caring feedback that is honest and direct. Your family's strengths and values will guide our collaborative process of getting your family to health, calm and happy.
