Therapist Overview
Has your child ever talked to you about feeling “different” at school? Do they feel like they are often the last one to finish socially or academically? Maybe as college student, you feel unprepared, frustrated and/or just overwhelmed. These are common thoughts of my clients; pre-teens, teens and young adults who want to know why they may be struggling academically, socially and/or emotionally. As an Educational Psychologist, I offer counseling, assessments, & parent consulting services that truly connect the dots between mental health and academic achievement. I understand and support the diverse needs of students & parents. In addition to providing counseling, I specialize in identifying learning differences (including ADHD & Autism), IEP/504 plans, parent advocacy, and psycho-educational assessments (IEE’s, gifted) for schools and families. I believe in a culturally relevant team approach, working with parents & schools to provide you and/or your child the best support. I want you to walk away from services feeling empowered to navigate the world whether that is through 1 on 1 counseling, parent advocacy & education, or the result of a comprehensive psychoeducational evaluation. I use a strengths-based approach to identify areas where support is needed and to build on strengths that already exist in you.
