Title:
Psy.D.
Experience with ages: Birth-5, 6-12,12-18 and 18-21
Insurance accepted: Out-of-network
Near public transport: yes
I work with young children, teenagers, adults, and families dealing with emotional pain, school or work related problems, developmental challenges, relationship issues, traumatic experiences, grief and loss. In my work I strive to create a safe, understanding, and non-judging space to help people faced with difficult life challenges empower themselves.
I have considerable experience helping where early attachment disruptions, relationship discord, and family conflict have created problems in daily life. I take each individual's or family's needs into account, and use a variety of research-based approaches to help.
These include traditional talk therapy, as well as dyadic play therapy, expressive arts, creative story telling, and other practical applications of cognitive and emotion-focused therapies. Regardless of age or life-experience, I focus on helping my clients to understand and express themselves, and to relate effectively in important relationships.
