I specialize in working with boys with behavioral, emotional, and/or school difficulties. My primary age of focus is 10-18 years old. I generally focus on skill building, and include strategies from solution-focused and cognitive behavioral therapy, as well as mindfulness and emotional regulation coping skills.
Specialties
My clinical focus is working with children and adolescents. I have extensive experience working with children and adolescents with behavioral and mental health difficulties. I have worked in a residential treatment center for children and teens as well as in a shelter for at-risk youth. For the last several years, I have been a child and family therapist in a community mental health agency.
A large portion of the children and adolescents whom I have been working with for the past 15 years have had an ADHD diagnosis. I have a well-rounded knowledge of how to treat this disorder with and without medication. I often times coordinate with primary care physicians, and school staff to help children and adolescents best manage their ADHD symptoms.
