I work with children with learning, behavioral and emotional needs and their parents. If you are struggling with your child's behavior, feel that your family and friends do not understand your child or are judging your parenting, and have "tried everything," I would like to offer a safe place for you and your child to talk and get support. If you have concerns with your child's learning process and suspect that your child may have a learning disability, ADHD, or Autism, a psychological evaluation can help to identify strengths and weaknesses, factors that impede learning, and may result in a diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
I have been working with children and families since 2004 when I completed my MA in Marriage and Family Therapy. I specialized in therapy with children with emotional and behavioral issues and their families. In 2014, I completed my doctorate in School Psychology. I conduct evaluations for children with suspected learning disabilities, ADHD or Autism.
Please reach out to me by phone or email if you would like to make an appointment. Both therapy and psychological evaluations are available in my Surfside Beach location. Only psychological evaluations (no therapy) are available in my Mt. Pleasant location.
