ADHD Therapists in Pflugerville, TX

As both a clinical psychologist and a Certified Martha Beck life coach, I am well suited for treating both mental health issues (such as depression, anxiety, and ADHD) and helping people reach goals that have felt unattainable.

I want to help you get through difficulties with the least suffering possible and on a path towards a rewarding life.

Defeat the bad behavior not the kid. Play is the natural language of the child. Rules without relationship equals REBELLION- are terms I have used throughout my clinical career.
