Therapy Services for Children & Families
Helping children, parents and families grow and flourish.

People seek therapy services for themselves and for their children for a variety of reasons. At different times in our lives we face problems and challenges that are difficult to cope with and overcome.

Therapy gives people a safe and confidential place to express their feelings, process the challenges they are facing and develop strategies and insight to help them cope, grow and move forward to heal.

I specialize in:

·         Individual Therapy and Family Therapy with children ages 2-18.

·         Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) with children ages 2-7.

·        Therapy with children and adolescents with internalizing issues (i.e. low self-esteem, sadness, anxiety, depression, relationship issues etc.).

·        Therapy with children and adolescents with externalizing issues (i.e. challenging behaviors, ADHD, acting out at home or school, anger, irritability, etc.).

·        Helping parents with developing effective parenting strategies.

·        Enhancing parent—child relationships.

·        Helping children and parents cope and recover from a traumatic event

In order to provide the best services to my clients, I continue to work part-time at the UC Davis Children’s Hospital CAARE Center to remain on the cutting-edge of evidence based therapy for children and families. The CAARE Center is well known and respected for their research in PCIT and other evidence based therapy practice.
