Available Services
Therapy
With training and experience in play therapy, cognitive behavioral
therapy, interpersonal therapy, and family systems therapy, I’m able to
create a custom therapeutic plan for each child and family I see. I often use a behavioral approach with younger children.
Assessment
I’m experienced in several types of evaluations, including cognitive testing,
learning disabilities, emotional assessment, and neuropsychological
assessment. I truly enjoy the assessment process, and consider it an
opportunity to get to know children in a unique way. I provide families
with a comprehensive written report at the end of each assessment.
