About Me
Are you feeling down or worried? Having trouble communicating with your spouse or teenager? Is your child having problems with attention, anxiety or frequent tantrums? Have you experienced a trauma? Things can get better. The first step is to get a careful assessment of the problem for either yourself, your child, teenager, relationship, etc. After the assessment, which may or may not involve testing, a evidence-based treatment plan will be developed with your input. We will then monitor how you and/or your family member are progressing. Other treatment options will be added as needed. I specialize in diagnosing and treating ADHD, oppositional-defiant disorder, anxiety and depression, obsessive compulsive disorder and post traumatic stress disorder in children, adolescents and adults. I provide relationship and family counseling. Dealing with loss and anger management training are also subspecialties. Cognitive behavioral and other research supported treatments are used.
