Current services offered:
IQ Testing
I offer IQ testing for gifted programming and school planning purposes, including private school admissions. To book IQ testing with me, please self-schedule here.
Parent Roadmap: Short-Term Parent Consultation
I offer a short-term parent consultation service called “Parent Roadmap”. The goal of these consultations is to help families prioritize concerns, identify appropriate supports, and determine next steps for their child. You can self-schedule a Parent Roadmap appointment here.
Parenting Anxious Kids- Group
I periodically offer a workshop called Parenting Anxious Kids. This 6-session (1-hour each session) small-group workshop is for parents of elementary-school-aged kids who experience anxiety or OCD. More information can be found on this here. If you’re interested in participating, please complete the New Client Inquiry Form or email me directly.
Individual Therapy for Tweens, Teens, & Young Adults
I enjoy helping young people navigate anxiety, worries, fears, and stress. My individual therapy clients range in age from tweens through young adults. Many of my clients have anxiety or OCD, and many are also neurodivergent—in other words, they think or learn differently, and may have a diagnosis such as autism or ADHD. I also enjoy working with ambitious, high-achieving, and stressed out tweens, teens, and young adults, and helping them learn skills to manage their stress and worry. My therapy practice is typically full but I do have occasional openings for new clients. Please complete the New Client Inquiry Form to check about therapy openings.
Professional Consultation
I also enjoy supporting other mental health professionals in building and growing their practices. In addition, I offer clinical consultation in my areas of expertise- including autism and neurodiversity, child anxiety and OCD, and developmental disabilities- to help clinicians strengthen their skills and feel more confident in their work. If you’re a mental health professional interested in school or clinical consultation, or practice-building support, you can self-schedule a consultation appointment in my client portal.
