With training from top national universities and experience at well known agencies, I have effectively treated individuals with anxiety, mood disorder, and ADHD. As well, having worked at the Regional Center for the past 8 years, I have gained extensive knowledge and experience in my work with individuals on the Autism Spectrum, including Aspergers Syndrome. I work therapeutically with children (10 year old and older), adolescents, and young adults. I conduct psycho-educational and psycho-diagnostic assessments as well as comprehensive Autism Spectrum assessments with children ( 6 years old and older), adolescents, and adults. I received my clinical training at Columbia University in NY and performed by internship at RAMS, an accredited site in San Francisco. My PhD in Social Cognition and Decision Making from University of Chicago enhances my clinical work with people on the spectrum by focusing on how people perceive, understand, and behave in social situations. My Masters in Education from Harvard informs my clinical work with children and young adults, who are experiencing academic problems, in psycho-educational assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and recommendations. ///// I do not conduct couple's counseling. I do not treat individuals who are court ordered or whose primary issue is addiction.
