I have a proven track record in working with youth with Neurodevelopmental Disorders (e.g. Autism Spectrum Disorder and Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorders), Depressive Disorders, Anxiety Disorders and Disruptive, Impulse-Control Disorders (e.g. Oppositional Defiant Disorder). My expertise includes psychological assessments, behavioral modifications, coping skills and social skills training, emotion regulation, crisis intervention and de-escalation.

I’ve provided Parent Management Training to families, play therapy to children who’ve experienced trauma, and support to at-risk pregnant teens.

My mission is to empower my clients to overcome challenges, build resilience, and achieve their goals while advocating for mental health awareness and reducing stigma.
