I'm a Clinical Psychologist with training in schools, outpatient clinics, inpatient units, and as a Harvard Fellow. From conducting psychiatric evaluations in area emergency departments, assessing clients in crisis, to working across all levels of the public school system, I bring multiple perspectives for parents struggling to support children with emotional/behavioral dysregulation. Whether rooted in ADHD, anxiety, or mood, coaching parents through these challenges with practical strategies is a hallmark of successful intervention. For couples, I employ an objective, educational approach to restore communication and intimacy.
I integrate these experiences to help clients understand and cope with emotional challenges. During treatment, I utilize various theoretical perspectives, including psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, and solution-focused therapies. Consultation with PCPs, schools, and psychiatrists is incorporated to provide a comprehensive and effective treatment model.
