My Approach
Psychological Testing Approach
I specialize in psychological testing for children and adolescents. My approach to testing is grounded in understanding the unique needs of each child and identifying their individual strengths and areas for growth.
My goal is to provide families with a comprehensive evaluation that is both thorough and easily understood. I prioritize creating a supportive and comfortable environment for the child during testing, which can help them feel more at ease and lead to more accurate results.
I tailor my testing approach to the unique needs of each child, and provide individualized recommendations and strategies to support their growth and development. When it comes to writing reports, I make sure reports are concise and to the point, without sacrificing quality. Reports include academic and/or standardized testing accommodations when appropriate. I work collaboratively with families to ensure that they have a full understanding of the results and recommendations, and feel empowered to advocate for their child's success.
Psychotherapy Approach
Navigating daily stressors, anxiety, depression, and relationships can be challenging. As a clinical psychologist, I am passionate about guiding my clients, whether they are children, adolescents, parents, or families, towards self-awareness, healing, and growth. Healing parts of the self are directly connected to healing the relationships we have in our lives. I utilize psychodynamic, relational, and attachment-based approaches to therapy and tailor my techniques to the individual needs of each client. My goal is to provide the support and tools needed to overcome intergenerational trauma and stress, promoting mindfulness, self-fulfillment, and healing that can positively impact future generations.
