I am a licensed psychologist with expertise in cognitive behavioral therapy for anxiety, depression, attention-deficit and hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and related conditions.

I am a certified therapist in Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) and I offer therapy and groups for parents of youth exhibiting mood or behavioral difficulties.

In addition to my faculty practice, I am a provider and investigator with the Center for Youth Mental Health at NewYork-Presbyterian. My research has centered on ways to improve accessibility of services provided to parents and families, as well as the useof evidence-based practices across disorders.
