Childhood and adolescence are, by their very nature, times of growth and change. A broad range of stressors and challenges can get in the way of an individual's ability to successfully negotiate their personal pathway. It is my professional goal and personal commitment to assist children and adolescents (and their families) in identifying barriers to learning and successful social emotional functioning; and to provide effective interventions to help them overcome those barriers.
