Adolescent Neurobody Psychotherapy

 

Welcome to Adolescent Neurobody Psychotherapy.​​​​​​​

​​Specialized Care for Children, Adolescents and Adults

Adolescent Neurobody Psychotherapy was established specifically to ensure neurodevelopmentally informed care is available for children and adolescents. In addition to the research and evidence-based therapies offered to adults:

  • Attachment-Based Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (AB-ISTDP)

  • Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy (EAET)

  • Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) 

I hold specialized training in working with children and adolescents. I integrate the latest research on neuroplasticity, play and attachment-based approaches to tailor treatment to developmental needs.

​​

Immigration Evaluations 

I also conduct specialized immigration evaluations, including:

  • Extreme Hardship (I-601A) waivers

  • Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) cases​

This work is supported by training from Physicians for Human Rights in collaboration with the Keck Human Rights Clinic at the University of Southern California, the Asylum Medicine Training Initiative, and Mastering Immigration Evaluations coursework.
