My Approach & Values

My style is warm, collaborative and engaged. I understand that both parents and children are often apprehensive about seeking the support and help of a psychologist and I aim to put both at ease. My goal is to make your time working with me whether it is through psychoeducational testing, therapy, or parent coaching meaningful and useful.

As an evaluator, I want to help parents and children understand the questions that brought them to me by being thorough and thoughtful. I am well versed in a number of assessment batteries and can tailor my work to address those concerns. I strive to set aside the “psychobabble” and use language that parents can understand when we discuss testing results.

In therapy, I focus on using cognitive behavior therapy, skills training, and mindfulness to help clients work through a variety of challenges. My goal is to help children and adolescents develop skills to help them become more resilient and successful.
