Great to meet you!

I’m a Columbia University-trained clinical child psychologist specialized in evidence-based treatment for youth and families. My specific treatment areas are anxiety (worries, social anxiety, phobias), depression, and disruptive behaviors (ADHD, tantrums, noncompliance).

My approach to therapy

I integrate various highly effective techniques to help youth 1) understand why they’re struggling, 2) regulate emotions and behaviors, 3) improve self-esteem and confidence, and 4) communicate better with others. I also enjoy helping parents decrease their stress, build parenting confidence, and find new ways of connecting with and supporting their child.

What you can expect from me

In my 10+ years working with families I’ve learned that kids and parents have the capacity to overcome any challenges with the right guidance and support. I create an empowering and judgment-free environment to allow for vulnerability and growth.
