About Me

I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist specializing in the treatment of children, teens and families.  Areas of expertise include Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for the treatment of depression, grief, anxiety, ADHD and behavior management.  I also provide parenting support.

I earned my doctorate in Psychology from the University of Texas at Austin in 2002.  My internship training was in the Psychology Department of the Cypress-Fairbanks School District in Houston, Texas – serving students with special needs at the elementary, middle and high school level.  My postdoctoral training was in a private practice setting in Austin, Texas – serving young victims of abuse and trauma.

I have lived in Jacksonville Beach with my husband and children for 14 years.  I was in a large group practice for ten years, providing psychological testing and therapy for children, teens and young adults.  In 2018, I opened a small private practice in Ponte Vedra Beach.  I truly enjoy working with children, helping them heal and providing them the skills and confidence to lead happier, healthier lives.  I believe in a collaborative health care model and often consult with teachers and other health professionals to provide comprehensive, wraparound support.
