In therapy, I work with families to create the change that they want to see. I believe that my clients are the experts in their own life and that my job is to help them reach their goals. I work collaboratively with patients and families using therapeutic techniques that have been shown in research to foster well-being and make positive change. Therapy should be collaborative, strengths‑focused, and non‑judgmental, with an emphasis on tools families can use in their lives.

As a licensed child psychologist in Massachusetts, I specialize in evidence‑based therapy for children, adolescents, and families. I begin with a comprehensive assessment to understand how thoughts, emotions, behaviors, relationships, and environments interact. From there, we identify practical strategies and skills tailored to your family’s goals.

I use cognitive‑behavioral and family‑based approaches to help address concerns such as:

• Anxiety and OCD

• Depression

• Stress

• Trauma

• Difficulties managing emotions

• Behavior challenges

• Picky eating and sleep issues

• Developmental transitions (including bedtime difficulties, school changes, or divorce).

My training and clinical work focus on child development, family systems, and resilience. I earned my Doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the University at Albany, SUNY, with a specialization in child development. I completed an APA‑approved predoctoral internship at Nationwide Children’s Hospital and a postdoctoral fellowship at UCLA, where I provided therapy to children and families experiencing anxiety, trauma, and stress. During this time, I also developed a research‑based parent training program for childhood anxiety.

My work is grounded in evidence‑based approaches, including:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

• Behavior Therapy (BT)

• Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)

• Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

• Parent Training & Parent‑Child Interaction Therapy (PT & PCIT)

• Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and other Mindfulness approaches

• Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavior Therapy (TF-CBT)

• Family Therapy

• Practical skill building for children and parents

I tailor therapy to each client’s age, goals, and unique context. As a cognitive behavioral psychologist, I begin my work with a comprehensive assessment to understand how a client’s thoughts, emotions, behaviors, and relationships interact with their environment. From there, I collaborate with clients and families to identify practical, evidence‑based strategies that support meaningful and lasting change.

I work with a variety of patient concerns, including:

• Children with anxiety, ADHD, challenging behaviors, and emotional regulation difficulties

• Adolescents navigating stress, mood concerns, and transitions

• Parents seeking support and parent training

• Families navigating challenges from school, graduation, divorce

• Families wanting to strengthen communication and relationships

I see clients in person at my office in Easton, Massachusetts, and I offer teletherapy for families and individuals located in Massachusetts, Maine, and Florida, depending on clinical fit and family needs.
