I have over 12 years of experience working with children and families.
Decades ago, many problems stopped kids from being successful in schools, making friends, and fulfilling their potential. Parents, you now have many resources to tap when you feel that something is not quite right with the way your child thinks, feels, or acts. Decisions about what to do when something seems wrong are critical - not only to the well-being of your child but also to their healthy development and successful transition to adulthood. So, if you have a child with a mental, emotional, or behavior problem, or think you might, please feel free to contact me.
