Every one of us is feeling overwhelmed these days! You may not even know where to start to take care of yourself sometimes, particularly if you are going through something challenging. Please know you are not alone, and I am here to help you. Mental health is about promoting wellness, not just relieving illness. All of us get “stuck” in life, including the “professionals”…that’s what it means to be human! Life throws us many curveballs, and we aren’t given manuals on how to handle it all. But despite all of this, challenges can become opportunities to learn more about yourself, and to regain your personal power.

I specialize in treating children, adolescents and young adults with obsessive-compulsive and related disorders, anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, and behavioral problems.
My main areas of specialization include the diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorders, and the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD, OCD, Selective Mutism, and anxiety disorders.
It is my experience that an empathic approach that is strength-based and grounded in science provides the most optimal therapeutic outcomes. While the foundations of my therapeutic approach are behavioral and cognitive- behavioral, I view compassion as an integral component to the way in which I practice. I believe that growth and change are fostered in environments in which individuals are seen and heard and differences are honored. It is therefore my primary mission to provide a safe and supportive environment for each individual and family member that I work with.
