Our Story
What makes us different? Mental and behavioral health is deeply personal and we believe in establishing a strong therapeutic relationship from the moment you contact us. Within 48 hours of your inquiry you will be contacted by one of our providers, not a receptionist or administrator, to discuss your unique needs and goals. No matter your situation, no matter the diagnosis, we are here to help. Together we will focus on continuously improving outcomes. We pride ourselves on providing unmatched individualized attention to you and your family. This is how health care is supposed to be.
I have over fifteen years of experience working with youth and families in a variety of settings including homes, clinics, and schools. I earned a Doctorate in School Psychology with a specialization in Pediatric Psychology from the University of South Florida, as well as a Masters in Special Education from Hunter College (CUNY) with a focus on Specific Learning Disabilities and a special interest in Autism Spectrum Disorders.
My experience includes conducting evaluations such as developmental, gifted, academic, behavioral, and mental health assessments, facilitating parent trainings and providing home-based caregiver coaching and support, and conducting evidence-based therapies including ABA services, cognitive-behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and individual and family therapy. I have worked with children and families with diverse needs and abilities, from those with typical development to children with exceptionalities including developmental delays, learning difficulties, executive functioning and attention deficits, challenging behaviors, mental health problems, chronic health conditions, and giftedness.
I've authored several publications in the field of pediatric psychology, recently having co-authored a book entitled "Evidence-Based Interventions for Children with Challenging Behavior" - published by Springer and available on Amazon.com.
Based in St. Petersburg, Florida, I am a wife and mother of three. I enjoy being outdoors, traveling, and spending time with family and friends.
