Introduction

I work with kids and teens who are thoughtful, sensitive, and motivated to do well, but whose brains and bodies make everyday demands harder than they appear. ADHD, anxiety, and medical or feeding challenges can complicate routines, relationships, and confidence. I take a whole-child, evidence-based approach that integrates psychology, behavior science, and health. I support kids, teens, and young adults with ADHD, anxiety, and feeding challenges using practical strategies that build flexibility, regulation, and confidence over time. Sessions are collaborative and developmentally appropriate so growth feels manageable and meaningful. Parents gain clear tools to reduce stress and support progress at home. Therapy works best when children feel understood and when progress is steady and sustainable. If you are looking for thoughtful, affirming care that values collaboration and real-world change, I would be glad to support your family. I offer in-person therapy in Scottsdale and telehealth across PSYPACT states through my private practice, WholeChild Wellness Pediatric Psychology.
