It is a sign of bravery and strength to recognize when you need the support of a mental health professional. I would be happy to help you better understand yourself and your emotional experiences, deal with challenging relationships, and address academic or occupational difficulties.

No matter the challenge, learning can (and should) work in harmony with each learners needs. If you're exhausted from endless IEP meetings and looking for a learning environment rooted in therapeutic MUSIC, creativity & joy, I'd love to work with your child! Together we can amplify their potential academically, socially, developmentally, expressively, and for their holistic wellbeing. I implement effective, evidence-based treatment to help them succeed in multiple facets of their life. Fostering an inclusive therapeutic learning environment is the heart of my practice.

I conduct neuropsychological evaluations with children, adolescents, and adults. For students, families typically seek out these assessments when something is interfering with their child's progress, whether academic, behavioral, or emotional. For adults, clients may need help determining why they are not performing to their potential, or working as efficiently as they would like.

When conducting neuropsychological testing, my mission is to provide a warm and caring environment and to see the complete person so that you leave feeling like you have been heard. As a trained neuropsychologist I understand neurological and neurodevelopmental disorders, as well as attention and learning difficulties and how they affect abilities. Psychological/neuropsychological evaluations include assessment of all brain functioning, academic performance, language, and social/emotional development. My aim is to help determine how you or your child are functioning now and how to best help you move forward.

My training background combines clinical psychology with children, adolescents, and adults, with highly specialized training and research in neuropsychology. I specialize in neuropsychological assessment, which includes diagnosing neurological and psychiatric disorders, including ADHD, learning disabilities, Autism Spectrum Disorder, anxiety and depression. My assessments provide a detailed look at brain functioning, assessing different skills, such as memory, attention, executive functioning, language, academics, and emotions, and how they interplay to create unique learning profiles for each individual.

I have more than 20 years of experience working with children on the Autism spectrum. I am an expert in child development, theories of learning, and applied behavior analysis. Unlike larger agencies, I personally work with your child. Sessions are naturalistic and play-based built around your child's needs and interests.

I am a clinical psychologist providing therapy and assessment services in Scarsdale and Greenwich. I treat various conditions, such as depression, anxiety, behavioral problems, social anxiety, and school/work issues. I also focus on life transitions, whether that be a recent move, transition from college, changes in family dynamics, or changes in significant relationships. Furthermore, I have extensive experience in conducting psychological assessments. Therapeutically, I focus on developing teens and adults, where as I provide assessments for all ages.

I'm a dedicated psychotherapist with an extensive and diverse background, spanning private practice, schools, college clinics, foster care, and hospitals, including acute care. With a passion for treating individuals of all ages, I specialize in harnessing the power of evidence-based therapies to create long-lasting positive change, focusing on the core of issues, rather than surface change. I take pride in fostering a safe, warm, and compassionate environment that embraces the unique perspectives of clients from diverse backgrounds. Even the most resistant patients find themselves engaged in the therapeutic process under my care.

Psychotherapy is the process of facing obstacles that block our growth. In a trusting therapeutic relationship one can learn to let go of fears and unhealthy patterns of behavior. Together we will create an environment where curiosity, intellect, feelings and humor allow one to evolve and change.

Across the span of child and adolescent development, every individual has a unique personal story and strengths that shine through, even in the face of challenge. I work with individuals from preschool through college and beyond, but my expertise is in early childhood and elementary-age development. With specialized experience and training in working with neurodiverse learners, including those with ADHD and autism, as well as gender-diverse individuals, I integrate evidence-based approaches to empower individuals and families with information, tools, and strategies to facilitate positive adjustment and wellbeing.

You want to understand your child. You want to be a better parent and know how to support them. I work with teenagers, young adults, and families to understand current sources of frustration, and to reshape systems and situations that are causing distress. I offer a collaborative and nonjudgmental space to help you identify your strengths and values, and to work towards building a life and relationships that are meaningful and value oriented.

Real change comes from understanding why our impulses and behaviors hold us back from experiencing our true potential and discovering the skills to create change. My goal is to help you better understand the challenges you and your family may be experiencing and work together towards a healthier way of functioning. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I offer over 10 years of experience providing therapy to children, young adults and families.
