My aim is to provide high-quality evidence-based assessment and treatment to children, teens, and families exhibiting a wide range of behavioral and emotional problems. Treatment approaches primarily involve cognitive-behavioral therapy and family systems therapy with treatment carefully matched to the needs of each unique child or adolescent and their family. From the onset of treatment, clear goals are developed in collaboration with the family to improve not only the functioning of the child, but also the functioning of the child's surrounding family and support system. My methods emphasize working with the family to address behavioral and emotional problems as a collaborative process. For parents, this may include behavior management help, problem-solving strategies, or stress management. Work with children often includes the development of coping skills to help manage anger, anxiety, sadness, and frustration. After recently completing my fellowship at the Kennedy Krieger Institute at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, I am excited to bring my warmth, compassion, and clinical skill to the diverse needs of Miami's children, teens, and families.
