WELCOME to my child and family practice!

MY PRACTICE

My mission is to help children, teens and young adults become more competent and confident in all areas of their lives and to support parents as they help their children grow. I work with a wide range of psychological concerns affecting youngsters and their families.

Services include individual therapy, family and marital therapy, parent consultations and case management. I often work in collaboration with a variety of other health and educational professionals. Treatment can be made more affordable with briefer and less frequent sessions. A typical course of treatment is under twelve sessions, although more serious and complex problems can take much longer. For many families, I serve much like a pediatrician, with appointments scheduled on an as needed basis throughout their child's developmental years.

I also offer parent coaching. You can request a phone, email or in-person session for any length of time. Services are charged in ten minute units. Coaching is best used when parents have questions that can be answered without my usual thorough intake and evaluation procedures. One can always switch to my regular psychological services should the coaching not be sufficient to meet your needs or should serious or more complex concerns arise.

Coaching differs from my regular psychological services in that no diagnoses are provided and coaching is never reimbursable by insurance. A brief (20 minutes), introductory meeting can be arranged at no cost. This meeting will give us an opportunity to see if I am a good match for your needs. Services are provided in a private, comfortable, family-friendly setting.
