**Practice full as of Nov 2019** I am a licensed psychologist specializing in therapy with children and adolescents. I believe we all develop "ways of being" in the world as a result of our innate temperament and early experiences. Psychotherapy and psychological testing offer the chance to look at these ways of being with a compassionate lens, honoring the value they have held in your life while determining whether they are still useful to you now. Through this process, new ways of being can emerge, leading to greater satisfaction in your life.

Clients can expect a highly active, curious and reflective environment in session, where they are challenged and encouraged to develop insight as a primary mechanism of behavioral change.

I am trained in EMDR for relief of trauma and both behavioral and psychodynamic/talking therapies which emphasize positive habits, good health and personal insight. Any change starts from within and sometimes we all need another perspective to grasp the whole picture so that problems or obstacles can be sensibly, sensitively and effectively handled. I work from a strengths-based orientation whereby the talents, skills, and interests can be identified. So we go from there, to where the individual learns to utilize those strengths in resolving problems, conflicts, stressors as well as finding sources of comfort, competence and confidence.

I have conducted hundreds of psychological evaluation as part of the school system's special education process and have consulted with many providers.
Life can be challenging and difficult for anyone and for all ages. It can bring changes and stressors to all of us. So many times, my clients will focus on what is going wrong with their lives, which can cause them to feel self-defeated. We all have the capacity to make things better, to be stronger, and to be supportive and appreciative of everyone close to us. The model of therapy I use gives my clients the skills to look at their lives differently and finally break out of dysfunctional cycles to achieve an individual state of peace.

I have advanced training in psychodynamic psychotherapy and psychological testing from Cambridge Health Alliance/Harvard Medical School, where I currently supervise.
I work with children, adolescents, and adults to create a collaborative space, where my patients feel safe to explore a range of topics. I have a particular interest in addressing feelings of anxiety, depression, and disconnect, and together we will explore how these feelings may impact broader life milestones, such as transitions in school and/or vocation, changes in relationships, and geographic re- location (immigration, adoption, or otherwise). I always consider how socio-political context affects your development and experience, and how these contexts intersect with the multifaceted aspects of one's identity.

Testing and Evaluation Therapists
What is a psychological evaluation?
A psychological evaluation is a test or assessment most commonly administered by a trained psychologist that is intended to be used in the diagnosis of specific psychological conditions, such as ADHD, mood disorders, personality disorders, dementia or Alzheimer's, and learning disabilities. Psychological evaluations can help inform future treatment decisions and help direct clients to professionals and resources that may be most helpful, such as potential therapy options or additional school supports.
Can psychological evaluations be done on individuals of any age group?
Psychological evaluations are conducted on individuals of all ages and can be beneficial to individuals across the lifespan. However, specific types of evaluations may be most frequently conducted on individuals of certain age groups. For instance, ADHD or learning disability testing is often conducted in children ages 4-12--the period of time when ADHD symptoms most commonly emerge. In contrast, cognitive functioning assessments, such as those conducted to diagnose dementia, are most commonly conducted in elderly individuals. Clients should ensure that the psychologist they are seeing has specific expertise in conducting evaluations in their age group to ensure they receive a correct diagnosis.
How long does a psychological evaluation take?
Psychological evaluations vary in length depending on the test being administered and the goals of the evaluation; however, most evaluations are 2-4 hours in length. Some evaluations may take as long as 8 hours but can often be spread across multiple days. In some cases, clients will also attend an intake session or interview, which can help the psychologist assess client functioning outside of the testing environment.
How should I prepare for a psychological test and evaluation?
Individuals do not need to prepare for psychological tests or evaluations in most cases, as they are intended to measure a client's baseline psychological status without test-specific preparation. However, clients may want to brainstorm a list of questions for their psychologist about any tests they are receiving prior to the assessment, including what potential outcomes may mean for what next steps the client should take.
