Services
I am a clinical psychologist working with families, children, and adults.
I am a short term therapist, meaning that I work with people to define a specific set of goals and generally set a limit of 16 sessions or less to reach those goals.
Having extensive experience in play therapy, I see children as young as 5 years of age.
Play therapy is an approach that allows children to work out their fears and resolve their anxieties in a safe environment through the natural medium of play.
I work with children to give them a language for what they are feeling and work on new ways of dealing with those feelings.
