Great to meet you!

As parents, navigating children's emotional and behavioral world can feel overwhelming. Children communicate distress in different ways—some turn their struggles inward, while others express them outward. I am here to help you understand these signals and guide your family toward lasting positive change using proven, practical approaches tailored specifically for children ranging from toddlers to adolescents.

My approach to therapy

As a child psychologist, I use evidence-based care to treat conditions including but not limited to anxiety, emotional regulation, compliance, sleep, and toileting. Through Cognitive-Behavior Therapy and Child-Centered Play, I help kids process big emotions and build coping skills. I also provide Parent Training to equip you with strategies that reduce conflict and restore peace at home.

What you can expect from me

Expect to talk through what's actually happening at home and school, in plain language, not clinical labels. Walk away with one or two concrete goals to start on immediately. Know that I explain the reasoning behind every skill I teach, so you're never just following instructions — you're building understanding you can use long after treatment ends.
