I'm a licensed clinical social worker with over 20 years of experience working with children, parents, and families. I earned my B.A. in English Literature from Emory University and my Master of Social Work from New York University.

My postgraduate training is extensive — family systems and clinical work through the Ackerman Family Institute, plus in-depth training in behavioral psychology, including Applied Behavior Analysis. Over the years I've worked with both typically developing and neurodivergent individuals, particularly children with learning differences, Autism, ADHD, and anxiety disorders.

I tend to work integratively. That means I draw on aspects of each of these trainings and frameworks at the moments they're most useful, depending on the topic at hand. Rather than relying on a single approach, I tailor the work to the person in front of me — so each session reflects what you actually need, not a rigid formula.

My work has spanned a wide range of settings and approaches: play therapy, school-based learning, social skills groups for children with social-emotional challenges, and individual family therapy. I've also counseled young adults, couples, and families in both group and individual settings.

Above all, I believe in goodness of fit. Therapy works best when you feel genuinely comfortable with the person you're working with — so if this approach feels like it might be right for you, don't hesitate to reach out by clicking on the "Work With Me" page.
