Clients come to my office to reduce distress, anxiety, and problems with others. They seek treatment for children who struggle in school, at home or with friends. Together we identify strengths and difficulties, set goals and monitor progress. Treatment can help you to make changes, find more peace, get healthy, and get everyone back to their lives. I have expertise treating behavioral problems, trauma and health related problems including eating disorders in children and adults. With 15+ years of experience studying, teaching, and practicing psychology, I can help you take the next step.
I practice Cognitive Behavioral, Behavioral, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy with children, families, and adults. I am a flexible creative provider who uses evidence supported interventions in treatment and will work with your health care team. Treatment is a difficult commitment to make and you should be informed along the way about your choices.
I believe you are doing the best that you can and looking for ways to make lasting changes. I am an expert in court on child development, custody evaluations, divorce, child psychopathology, bullying, and adult personality and functioning. I am a published researcher and active in the professional practice community locally, nationally, internationally.
