I bring empathy, optimism, and playfulness to my work with children. I work with children between the ages of 5-18 on coping skills related to friendships, challenges at school, and challenges at home. I am also a neuropsychologist and I conduct comprehensive neuropsychological and autism spectrum disorder evaluations with both children and adults. I understand how neurodevelopmental and mood disorders affect children and I know how to engage children surrounding these challenges. I was born outside the US, so I am sensitive to different cultural perspectives a child may be exposed to at home.
My extensive experience in neuropsychology informs my psychotherapy work with children.
I invite you to reach out by phone or email for a complimentary consultation to see whether I can be the right therapist for your child.
