I work with children, adolescents, and adults with a variety of presenting problems including but not limited to anxiety, depression, trauma (physical, sexual, emotional, and psychological), low self-esteem, grief and loss, family conflict, school issues, oppositional defiant behaviors, anger management, Autism, and adjustment.
My focus is to help each individual gain self-awareness, self-compassion, and overall confidence in his, her, or their ability to understand and manage overwhelming emotions, stress, and ongoing psychological and behavioral problems. When we are defeated or don’t feel like ourselves, it is easy to focus on the negatives; I help individuals, couples, and families rediscover their strengths and the positive attributes that empower them toward growth and happiness. I am passionate about kids, women’s issues, building healthy relationships, increasing self-esteem, and healing family dynamics (including teaching parenting skills).

I believe there is already more right with you than wrong with you. When you believe this as well, watch out, for the world will begin to reflect the new perspectives and energy you create. With good reason you arrived at a disbelief in your goodness, uniqueness and personal power to create a better life. Core beliefs are adopted early in life from challenge and trauma. They reside deep in the subconscious where they can be difficult to rewrite. I can help you replace old ways of thinking, feeling and acting with those that support growth, expansion and attainment of goals that lie beyond your current limiting beliefs.

Oppositional Defiance (ODD) Therapists
What is the most effective treatment for oppositional defiant disorder?
The treatment of Oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) will involve multiple approaches designed to help both the youngster and their parents, sometimes including medication. A therapist will help a child learn ways to regulate their emotions, curb their impulsiveness, and counteract anger, defiance, and disruption, while showing parents ways to bring these lessons into their home. A technique designed for children with conditions like ODD, known as Collaborative and Proactive Solutions (CPS), may also be used. CPS addresses a child’s concerns and rewards appropriate responses while discouraging harsh punishment or criticism.
How does treatment for oppositional defiant disorder work?
Treatment for ODD addresses the issues underlying a child’s defiance and disruption, the emotional regulation and impulse-control skills they lack, and the way adults respond to them. ODD therapy is based on the idea that children with the disorder understand the difference between right and wrong, that they want to behave well, and that, with help, they can. By responding to the child with empathy instead of harsh criticism, ignoring nonviolent behaviors, and rewarding positive actions, a therapist, and the other adults in a child’s life, can help children improve their behavior.
How long does therapy for oppositional defiant disorder take?
Therapy for oppositional defiant disorder is not a short-term undertaking. Depending on the severity of a child’s symptoms, their age, the presence of other conditions like ADHD, anxiety or a mood disorder, and their family dynamic, it can take months before improvement is noted. The cooperation of parents and teachers is crucial, because the skills learned in therapy must be practiced in real-world situations, with all their potential triggers.
Does oppositional defiant disorder go away?
ODD can remit following treatment. ODD is often diagnosed in nursery school, and early intervention is essential for a positive prognosis. In two-thirds of children, according to the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, symptoms resolve within three years.
