As a Board Certified and Licensed Behavior Analyst with training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), I help children develop the skills to understand themselves and the world around them with confidence and clarity. My approach combines evidence-based CBT techniques with compassionate, individualized support—helping children recognize, identify, and make sense of their thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and bodily sensations, and how these experiences are deeply connected.

Through guided exploration, children learn how their thoughts can influence emotions and actions, and how to replace unhelpful patterns with more balanced and effective ways of thinking. Sessions are engaging, interactive, and focused on teaching real-life coping and problem-solving skills that children can use at home, school, and in relationships.

A central part of my work also includes helping children understand and build trust—with themselves and others. We explore what it means to have healthy boundaries, to be reliable and accountable, and to act with character and integrity. These lessons help children form secure relationships, increase self-respect, and navigate social interactions more confidently.

My goal is to provide a safe, supportive space where children feel heard, valued, and empowered to grow. By strengthening both self-awareness and interpersonal understanding, CBT helps children not only manage challenges such as anxiety, frustration, and low self-esteem, but also build lifelong emotional and social resilience.
