About My Clients

I work best with parents in their 20s and 30s who are struggling with finding effective ways to support their child. You've had parents. We largely parent the way we were parented - or in reaction to that way. There are parenting skills you can learn and practice that are validated by a lot of research. Feeling more competent and effective can making parenting more fun and less stressful.

My Background and Approach

I retired after 22 years of working with children and families through County Mental Health. During that time I specialized in working with younger and younger kids. I developed skills in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) and neuropsychology based approaches taught by Dan Siegel, M.D. I've been able to help children with mastering development levels and helped parents find ways to more effectively provide discipline for their child.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I work 2 days a week with the Crisis Department for my county as well as having my private practice. This work engages me with people with severe psychiatric difficulties and substance addictions. Many are also homeless. I am an advocate for the humane treatment of people in these conditions.
