Welcome! If you are looking to have your child tested for Autism, ADHD, PDA, giftedness (2e) or other forms of neurodiversity from an affirming lens, you are in the right place! I provide assessment for children ages 6 to 18. The process involves an in-person testing session with the child as well as thorough interviews with the parents, family members, and teachers. I will also do a record review of any previous testing that has been completed, report cards, and any lEPs/504 plans. This is an extensive deep dive assessment that will help you better understand your child's identity, support needs, and ways to best parent them.

This can be via traditional talk therapy, medication management, mindfulness techniques, an emphasis on health, wellness and fitness or any combination of the above.

Welcome to my practice! I specialize in working with teens (ages 13 to 18) and young adults (18-21). I work with a variety of issues/topics including: neurodiversity (ADHD, Autism, PDA), depression, anxiety, academic issues, bullying/peer issues, trauma and family relationships. I work with the LGBTQIA+ community and enjoy working with teens who are questioning or having concerns around sexuality or gender identity. When working with teens, establishing a connection and safety is my first goal.

Just being human can be hard, and with all that is expected of us in this life, it can seem almost impossible at times. The external world can feel overwhelming and unsafe and our internal world can feel chaotic and just as unsafe. At the heart of any therapeutic approach is the attempt to find peace within so we can learn to be at peace with what is beyond our control. At Balanced Life Therapy Center, our clinicians are trained, each in their own preferred approach to healing, to support the inner world of their clients and help them get connected to the power they hold to move towards the life they desire.

Has life become overwhelming to you? Do you question yourself or your ability to be a loving spouse, friend, or parent? Is your child's challenging behaviors or your own traumatic childhood getting in the way of your dreams? Are you raising an adopted or foster child with a trauma history or unexplainable difficult behaviors? Has any of these caused you to feel secretly depressed and/or fearful that no one will understand or even really care?

Is your child struggling at home, school, or friendships? Does anxiety, anger, tantrums, or sadness seem to disable them? Whether it is huge outbursts of emotions, being overly quiet or shut down, I equip kids & parents to overcome hurdles & live with more confidence. A child's behavior is their way of communicating with you. Together we can work on understanding what your child is "saying". Getting help for your child shows how much you care for them! I'm a bilingual psychotherapist (English-Spanish) with over a decade of experience working with children, teens, & families.
