Therapist Overview
I work with a range of clients, from children who are struggling to read, to adolescents who experience signs of depression and anxiety, and I even help parents understand what their child is going through so that they can become an advocate for their needs. This is done through assessments, counseling, and offering parent consultation and supports. Additionally, I am able to walk families through the special education process and review IEP documents together as well. I specialize in identifying and diagnosing learning disabilities, as well as behavioral and mental health disorders. I also work as a School Psychologist which allows me the ability to bring the medical and school components together. Lastly, my main focus is to educate parents on what their child needs are in order to be successful. Through working in the public schools, I see the challenges that parents face when going through the diagnosis and special education process. Let me be a resource for you so that you can understand how to better support your child learning, social emotional, and behavioral needs.
