Clinically, I have extensive experience with working with children, adolescents, families, emerging adults, and adults across the lifespan and experience treating a variety of disorders (depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, disruptive behavior disorders, ADHD, substance use, panic attacks, etc.). I have worked with diverse populations in various settings (inpatient hospitals, outpatient hospitals, university settings, homeless shelters, schools, etc.).
