I am a Bilingual School Psychologist and Licensed Educational Psychologist. In schools, I provide evaluation and consultation services for districts. I am passionate about supporting English Learners (ELs) and specialize in conducting bilingual evaluations (Spanish/English) for students when there are complex factors that are simultaneously impacting a child's progress in school (English language acquisition, acculturation, gaps in education, impact of stress and social-emotional factors that interrupt learning, etc.). My evaluations have high legal and ethical standards and take into account developmental and educational history, as well as cultural and linguistic factors when assessing for the presence of an educational disability. In my private practice, I work with children and families in my office in Wellesley, MA, where I provide consultation, psychotherapy, and evaluation services. I am able to provide all services in English or Spanish. My services help children and families to navigate a range of challenges that often manifest during the difficult transitions that accompany pre-adolescence, adolescence, and young adulthood. In psychotherapy and consultation with parents, some of the issues that I commonly work on are coping with depression, anxiety, ADHD, social/relationship issues, self-esteem, stress management, and learning disabilities. I am a good match for middle and high school students who would benefit from counseling support outside of the school setting with a practitioner who can collaborate well with school-based service providers. In addition to therapy, I offer psychological testing at my Wellesley office, where I conduct personalized evaluations that include tests of neuropsychological functioning (memory, attention, executive functioning, information processing), cognitive (IQ/Intelligence tests), social-emotional assessments, and standardized tests of academic skills.
