I specialize in working with children and adolescents targeting ADHD, behavioral issues, anger management, depression, and anxiety. I also offer psychological evaluations addressing possible ADHD, learning disabilities, processing deficits, dyslexia, or emotional/behavioral issues. I provide individual counseling, parent coaching, and psychological evaluations. I also work with schools in terms of observations or consultation. I am currently a consultant at the The Westminster Schools and worked as the Learning Specialist for several years.I received my undergraduate degree at Texas A&M University and my PhD in School Psychology at Pennsylvania State University. I have worked with children and adolescents for over 25 years. I work with individuals in a respectful, warm, inviting, and relaxed manner. I approach difficulties utilizing a holistic approach, depending on your child's unique personality and needs. Additionally, our practice is multi-disciplinary and offers speech and language therapy, academic tutoring, and psychiatric services. The goal of therapy is to produce change resulting in a more functional, respectful family environment. Often, parents report they " feel like [I] have my child back". If your child receives a psycho-evaluation, you will be provided information regarding your child's unique learning style and strategies to help them reach their academic potential.
