Parenting doesn't come with a manual; raising children and adolescents often raises many questions. Whether you have a child who isn't talking or you keep getting calls from school about concerns about their behavior - treatment can support you in your role of raising your child. As parents, sometimes you may want to pull your hair out or you feel like others don't understand. You may benefit from coming in and learning ways to manage stress, help your child with coping skills, and find the life you'd like to be living. Psychological services are designed around your well-being, you aren't crazy - life is just sometimes hard.
As a licensed clinical psychologist, my speciality is in understanding children, adolescents, and families. I can help you understand your child and why certain things may be concerning. I can conduct evaluations, provide ongoing treatment, and develop a personalized plan to help you reach your goals. I focus on evidence-based strategies to support you.
You are not crazy, sometimes life is just hard. Mental health is so important and I am glad you are seeking support. I encourage you to reach out and start early. Starting often leads to significant improvements in overall well-being. There is no reason to try and figure everything out on your own. I look forward to connecting to learn how I can support.
