My goal is to help my clients overcome obstacles that significantly impact their life. I systematically tailor my treatment and evaluations to the unique needs of each of my clients in order to achieve optimal results, and use a team approach, working closely with schools, psychiatrists, and other physicians to ensure that your care is consistent. Please contact me to discuss you concerns and determine if psychotherapy is the right match for you.
