North Atlanta Pediatric Psychology
About
I am a licensed health psychologist who provides assessment and therapy for children, adolescents, adults and families coping with acute and chronic medical conditions and related emotional, behavioral, and neurodevelopmental disorders. I take a skills-based approach to help individuals and families learn strategies to improve functioning and well-being. I specialize in working with individuals and families to promote adjustment to chronic or acute medical conditions – recognizing the interplay between physical and psychosocial health and well-being. Common medical conditions that I specialize in include: chronic pain, hypermobility/EDS, dysautonomia/POTS, psychosomatic symptoms, gastrointestinal disorders, concussions, traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries, sleep problems, diabetes, cancer, sickle cell disease, heart, kidney or liver disease, eating problems after illness and cystic fibrosis. Together I work to optimize your physical, behavioral, emotional, and social health; to help you find ways to optimize functioning and make living with your medical conditions easier and treat co-occurring stress, anxiety, mood and behavioral concerns.
