A child psychologist, specializing in neurodevelopmental disorders i.e., Aspergers, NLD, Learning Disabilities, ASD, ADHD, and anxiety and divorce, I work with children individually, with parents, and in groups. I have many years of experience with young children ranging in age through mid 20's. I integrate a child's temperament, processing style, family dynamics, and developmental stage in guiding and supporting parents. In addition to focusing on life at home, I visit schools and consult around educational planning to support the child's growth and to offer the family an integrated approach.
My approach to therapy is mutlifaceted with strong interest in understanding how the child processes information, how s/he talks about or plays out experiences, and how other aspects of development impact behavior and daily life including sensory integration issues and language processing issues.
I approach my work with respect for the struggle that parents or children are experiencing. My goal is to understand and empathically support children as we work towards better understanding the issues at hand. Helping children and young adults know themselves better is very rewarding.
