I provide psychological services to help children lead meaningful and vibrant lives. Disruptive behaviors, changes in the family structure, traumatic experiences and developmental issues are some of many challenges families are faced with. As children mature to a new stage of development their needs change and parents need to respond in a way to continue to foster the child's physical, social, and emotional well-being. I offer individual, parent-child (dyadic), group, and individual parent consultations services. These services are available to those seeking support, guidance, and meaning to what is taking place within themselves, their child, or their family.
