I would be happy to talk with you regarding any
concerns you have about your child or adolescent,
and to help you determine what kind of assistance
might be beneficial. I thoroughly enjoy my work with
children, adolescents, and families. My clients
describe my approach as friendly, down-to-earth, and
practical.
I have been in private practice for about 15 years.
I work holistically with my clients, treating them
as individuals, but also as members of their
families and social groups. I use an integrated
approach to treatment, drawing from various
treatment perspectives such as psychodynamic,
behavioral, cognitive-behavioral (CBT), and systems
theory.
I assess children and treat them using
individual therapy, family therapy, and parent
coaching. Common concerns include anxiety, sadness,
phobias, separation anxiety, ADHD, trauma, peer
relationships, sibling rivalry, aggressiveness,
social anxiety, loss, tantrums, toileting, and
parenting concerns. I coordinate as needed with
teachers, pediatricians, and psychiatrists.
I also work with adolescents to help them navigate
the difficult social and emotional challenges they
face today, such as family conflict, depression,
anxiety, social issues, school stress, loss, and
motivation problems. I love working with
adolescents, and as a parent of two of them, I am
very familiar with their issues, as well as with the
difficulties associated with parenting them.
I hope that you will contact me if you have concerns
about your child or adolescent, or if you feel that
you could use some assistance with parenting.
