Working with children, teens, young adults, and families has been a passion and a trained specialty of mine for over 10 years.

If seeking an autism, psychological or academic assessment, I provide a full battery of testing, complete evaluation report, feedback session, and any necessary follow-up to ensure you get the resources your family needs.

Parenting a young child is challenging, but it is so much more difficult when your child is oppositional, defiant, and/or aggressive. Many parents blame themselves, feel isolated, and are unsure of what to do. You can be the solution, though! Through a unique approach called Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), I coach parents and guardians in developing the necessary tools for promoting a healthy relationship with their children based on mutual love and respect. In return, children feel more secure and are less interested in testing boundaries. PCIT has strong scientific support and is highly effective in person or online!
