My practice specializes in the cognitive-behavioral treatment of children, adolescents, and adults. As a licensed clinical psychologist practicing in Boca Raton, I am one of the few in the state of Florida who has been trained during my graduate and post-graduate education in the practice of cognitive-behavior therapy (see "About Cognitive-Behavior Therapy").

Although I am known internationally for my work with children, adolescents, and adults with anxiety disorders- phobias (including "school phobia"), panic attacks (and agoraphobia), obsessive-compulsive spectrum disorders (OCD, trichotillomania, skin-picking, hoarding, body dysmorphic disorder, tics), separation anxiety, selective mutism, generalized anxiety disorder, social and performance anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder- I have extensive experience successfully treating eating (bulimia; compulsive overeating) and mood disorders (depression; bipolar disorder) from preschool to geriatric, as well as family and marital/relationship problems. 

I also offer consultations, in-depth diagnostic evaluations, and “second opinions” for more complex or treatment-resistant cases.
