Child Therapist Austin, TX

Before I worked with adults, I primarily worked with children and adolescents. I am still a child psychologist at heart. Predominately these days, I consult with parents who have children that struggle with mood and behavioral concerns (e.g., anxiety, depression, ADHD). For direct therapy with children, I primarily use CBT and evidence based treatment for mood disorders (e.g, anxiety and depression). For ADHD treatment, I mostly consult with parents to establish behavioral plans that are based on positive reinforcements. Also we discuss strategies that improve executive functions, time management, and daily living skills. My therapy and treatment are evidence-based and grounded in research proven techniques. For young children (ages 4 and up), I hold a national certification in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). At present, I am not providing PCIT treatment but I do anticipate launching this very exciting program in the near future. For young children with intense behavioral challenges, I provide consultations for parents. During the summer, I offer summer camps for children to help them with emotion regulation skills.
