I have over 30 years of experience working with children, adolescents and their families, as well as individual adults, in independent practice, school and hospital settings. While I work with patients presenting with a wide range of issues and concerns I specialize in working with neurologically or developmentally 'atypical' children , adolescents and young adults - ADHD, learning disabilities, autism spectrum, etc. I often work with those neurodevelopmentally atypical children, adolescent and young adults who don't easily fit into these kinds of standard diagnostic categories.

My education and training, including a PhD in Clinical and Community Psychology from Yale University, leads me to take a multi-level (biological, psychological, social systems) and collaborative (primary physician, parents, school) approach to working with patients. I often use Cognitive, Behavioral, Family, and Solution Focused strategies and techniques. I look for and develop strengths, resiliencies and resources.

To learn more about how I think and what I do check out my blog posts at Psychology Today: Atypical Children - Extraordinary Parenting (https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/atypical-children-extraordinary-parenting).

My practice locations are in Metuchen and Hopewell, NJ. Please reach out by phone (see contact info on this profile) rather than e-mail.
