Working in a relaxed, comfortable office environment, we invite parents
to collaborate with us to provide the most appropriate services for
their children (preschool through college age).
Our
practice is comprehensive, fee-for-service, and specializes in
evaluation and treatment of children, adolescents, and their parents.
Services include individual therapy, parent counseling and psychological
and educational testing. Our approach is developmentally sensitive,
with a diagnostic emphasis on individual differences and normal
variation. We guide parents through the maze of confusing and complex
federal and state regulations related to special education and other
services and with school placement decisions. We work with children
with a variety of issues including learning disabilities, Attention
Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), autistic spectrum disorders, and
emotional and social problems. We also work with gifted children who
need enriched programs.
My
practice has recently expanded to include additional psychologists. I
continue to see clients as well as direct the practice, providing the
same high quality, individualized service, with the additional benefit
of being able to accommodate more clients and a choice of
psychologists. My educational background includes a B.A. in Psychology,
Magna Cum Laude; M.Ed. in Educational Psychology, and Ph.D. in School
Psychology (American Psychological Association Approved Program). I
bring experience of over 20 years as a psychologist in public and
residential schools, along with private practice during most of that
time. My experience includes teaching in graduate university programs,
research, publications, and participation in professional organizations
(such as Fellow of the Pennsylvania Psychological Association; Member of
the American Psychological Association; Member of the Philadelphia
Society of Clinical Psychologists; Member of
Specialists of Schools).
We are
committed to using the most current knowledge in the field by ongoing
participation in continuing education, teaching, and critical reviews of
the latest clinical research and literature. Please let us know how we
can help your family or families with whom you are working.
