About

I am a licensed psychologist specializing in clinical child and adolescent psychology. Whether you are a parent concerned about your child's socio emotional well-being, a teenager feeling disconnected and lost, or a young adult struggling with life's transitions and relationships, I can support you or your child to live a life with joy and purpose. By promoting mindful awareness I help my young clients make changes in their lives towards wellness. I am trained and experienced in a broad range of issues, including anxiety, depression, autism spectrum, ADHD, mood, adjustment, and other interpersonal and behavioral difficulties.

My clinical practice is rooted in Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). Drawing from Responsive Parenting, I emphasize positive, effective and mindful parenting strategies in improving parent-child relationships. I am also SPACE-trained. I employ holistic and evidence based practices to ensure best outcomes.

My treatment style is directive yet supportive, educational and focused on developing skills your child/you can use to resolve the current struggle or problem. In addition to knowledge of the underpinnings of human behavior, I bring warmth, compassion and positive regard to the collaborative relationship based on trust and confidentiality.
