Do you or your child have a medical issue or life stressor that is negatively impacting your well-being? Are you looking for a professional who can relate, give you a long-term, research-backed plan + tools for empowering you to get back to living a meaningful life?
If you want to work with someone who is empathic, collaborative, and helps you improve your well-being for the long-run, you are in the right place.
My approach is both: Empowering & guiding. Encouraging & challenging. Direct & warm. Humorous & genuine. Creative & research-backed. Professional & empathic.
I offer various in person + virtual pediatric psychology services: consultation, assessment, testing, therapy, and coaching. My specialties include kids, parenting, medical issues, life transitions.
What's it like working with me? A warm hand on the shoulder and a gentle nudge, saying YOU can do this. Every skill and tool you need to feel empowered to meet your goals yourself. Guidance and encouragement, if and when needed. If this sounds like what you're looking for - let's connect! Book a free consultation session today.
