Does your child frequently seek reassurance that everything is going to be fine? Do they fear public speaking or meeting new people? Do they have difficulty getting going, completing school work, seeing friends? Is your child bothered by unwanted thoughts that make him/her fearful, anxious, ashamed, or guilty? Do these thoughts make them wash their hands excessively, check, confess, or doubt? Is your child or toddler having excessive and unmanageable tantrums? Do they frequently break rules or defy you? Is it feeling hard to manage their behavior at home or elsewhere?
I work directly with children and adults to help them learn strategies to better manage their reactions to strong emotions. For toddlers and preschoolers, I work directly with caregivers to teach and/or coach them in helpful parenting strategies to reduce tantrums, avoidance, and problematic reassurance-seeking.
I tailor my services to the needs of the client and primarily offer evidence-based treatments, including CBT, ERP, and PCIT. If this sounds like the right fit for you, please reach out to me to schedule a free initial consultation.

I am certified in the Unified Protocol for Children and Adolescents (UP-C/A) and was trained and mentored by its developer. The UP-C/A is a CBT approach that targets distress related to the experience of strong emotions in general. This allows me to address more than one related problem set at once.

During PCIT, I will provide you with live coaching as you play with your toddler or child. I will also teach you appropriate and effective discipline strategies and coach you in their implementation. By working directly with parents/caregivers and children, I help families build stronger bonds and improve communication. Together, we can create a happier, healthier family dynamic.
