About

I’m a psychologist passionate about helping kids, teens and young adults (18-25) discover their inner strengths and navigate the challenges of school, family, friends and work. Talented people can lose sight of their many capabilities, and need support in figuring out how to function at their best. By working together, we can find that new direction you are seeking. I focus on resilience, collaboration, and empowering people to thrive. Using strengths-focused evaluation and counseling approaches, I work with clients to foster talents and develop skills. Targeted approaches for ADHD, anxiety, executive functioning, dyslexia, dysgraphia and other learning disorders can help address your unique way of processing the world around you. At Mindbright Psychological Services, evaluations are designed not only to identify needs, but to promote self-understanding, growth and resilience for each client throughout the process itself. The challenges facing you or your child can feel overwhelming when tackled alone. Let's connect to set up a time to chat. Private pay practice Superbills can be provided to client directly if appropriate.
