Compassionate, evidence-based psychological services for children, adolescents, and young adults in Orange County
Parenting comes with countless roles—supporter, advocate, teacher, coach. It’s no wonder it can feel overwhelming. One role you don’t have to take on is therapist.
​
Therapy gives your child or teen a safe space to face challenges like anxiety, OCD, depression, or ADHD, while also supporting the family as a whole. My approach combines evidence-based care with warmth and compassion, helping young people build resilience and self-confidence while strengthening family connections.
​
I’ll work alongside you to create tools and strategies that fit your child, so you can spend more time enjoying your family and less time worrying.
About me
As both a psychologist and a father, I know how deeply family life shapes us. Even the hardest experiences can be turned into opportunities for growth when children and teens have the right support. My goal is to help them find resilience, confidence, and stronger connections with the people who matter most.
​
After completing my doctorate at Loyola University Maryland and advanced training at Children’s Hospital of Orange County, I’ve focused my career on helping families manage anxiety, OCD, depression, and ADHD with evidence-based care delivered in a warm, compassionate way.
