I am a Licensed Psychologist with expertise in Pediatric Neuropsychology and Behavioral Medicine. I specialize in ADHD, ASD, SLDs, TBI/stroke, and cancer.

I work with pediatric patients and young adults with long COVID, TBI/concussions, spinal cord injury, epilepsy, brain tumors, arteriovenous malformation bleeds/strokes, demyelinating diseases, cancer, transplant recipients, general medical conditions and genetic disorders affecting the nervous system. I also specialize in neurodevelopmental conditions such as autism spectrum (children and adults), developmental and learning disorders, attention-deficit and disruptive behavior disorders, comorbid anxiety, and mood disorders. The services I provide involve comprehensive bilingual neurodevelopmental or neuropsychological assessment, diagnosis, and effective care plans including provision of appropriate recommendations for school, home and the community, as well as individual psychotherapy for children and adolescents with developmental or acquired neurological/ medical conditions. During our first meeting, I will interview you and your child, in order to assess your needs. I will then be able to offer you some first impressions of what our work will include and a treatment plan to follow, or if testing is warranted. Working as a team to help you and your family is my primary goal.
