I am experienced in providing therapy for a variety of concerns. Common therapy topics include anxiety, depression, social skills, adjustment to life transitions, and managing stress and/or anger. In-office and telehealth sessions are available.

Consultation

I am available to consult with medical professionals, school personnel, mental health professionals, coaches, etc.

As a school psychologist by training, I am very familiar with local school districts’ policies and procedures and can support families in navigating the process of eligibility for additional school services, such as Gifted, Section 504, and/or an Individual Educational Plan (IEP).

TrainingS

I am a trainer of Youth Mental Health First Aid and have trained over 150 individuals in the state of Florida. The Youth Mental Health First Aid course is an 8-hour training program to teach members of the community how to provide “first aid”, or the initial help, to a young person developing a mental health problem or experiencing a crisis until professional treatment is obtained or the crisis resolves. Trainees may include parents, grandparents, coaches, school personnel, law enforcement, faith-based communities, hospital and nursing home staff, etc. As a result of this course, participants become certified in Youth Mental Health First Aid.

I am also available to provide trainings to mental health professionals and parent groups on a variety of topics related to children and adolescents’ mental health.
