Preteens / Tweens (11 to 13) Therapists in 06877

Children's developing brains and the many supports naturally built into their lives (parents, siblings, teachers, etc.) make them perfect candidates for intervention when they are experiencing difficulty. If you are concerned about your child, as a licensed psychologist and certified school psychologist, I can identify strengths and needs and develop a plan for intervention that addresses multiple influences within your child's life, including home and school. I am most adept at working with children with developmental delays/disorders, anxiety, learning difficulties, behavioral issues, and executive functioning deficits (such as attention difficulties).

Welcome. I believe the essence of a healing psychotherapeutic process is feeling understood in an environment of emotional safety and mutual trust. My approach as a clinical psychologist provides you with compassionate, intelligent psychotherapy which is sensitive and personal to your needs. We work together, seeking the ways which we find most beneficial. At times, this may be an exploration and understanding of your emotions and life experiences, at other moments, this could be a focus on specific problems and possible solutions. My style is empathic, engaged and non-judgemental. Feel free to call me at 203-438-0426.
