I can offer you help for your child. I have 25 years of experience working with children and families. As a child therapist, I create a therapy environment that feels safe and relaxing for kids. In this setting, I am able to diagnose and provide treatment for children's mental health issues such as ADHD, Anxiety, Depression, PTSD, and Adjustment Disorders which are accompanied by mood and behavior problems. Most children respond well to treatment which includes Play Therapy, Cognitive-Behavior Therapy, teaching coping skills. I have extensive experience working with clients with Developmental Disabilities and Autism Spectrum Disorders. My specialty is providing treatment access to clients and/or families who are Deaf and Hard of Hearing. I am fluent in American Sign Language (ASL) and received my graduate degree in 1990 from Gallaudet University. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, "Not every problem is serious. In fact, many everyday stresses can cause changes in your child's behavior... It is important to be able to tell the difference between typical behavior changes and those associated with more serious problems."
