Therapy Services

Cincinnati's Hyde Park Family Therapy was created to address the needs of pre-teens, teens, young adults and parents coping with chronic medical conditions and/or mood and behavioral health difficulties. For many families, seeking support in the comfort and proximity of a neighborhood setting is preferred over a hospital or clinic setting.

 

After working in several major medical centers throughout the Midwest, I  understands this importance and provide cutting edge treatments outside of Cincinnati's busy downtown hospital campus, yet my office is close enough that appointments could be coordinated. 

 

Conditions treated at Cincinnati's Hyde Park Family Therapy  include:

• Coping with a medical condition and general pediatrics (pill swallowing, needle phobia, adjustment to diagnosis, difficulty remembering/unwilling to take medication, fear of the dentist)

• Anxiety  and perfectionism

• Depression

• Skin picking and scratching due to eczema, acne, or other dermatological diagnosis

• Teen issues/concerns

• School difficulties 

• Relationships (parent-child, friendship, romantic)

• And more. 

 

Specific treatments are primarily cognitive behavioral (CBT)  in nature with a focus on empowering clients to build positive thoughts and behavior. In addition, My extensive research and clinical work as clinical director at Cincinnati Children's Hospital allows me to use cutting edge treatment methods in her work with Hyde Park Family Therapy. 



 Brief assessment may be completed in the office in order to inform the treatment process and provide accurate diagnosis. Testing is also completed in career counseling.
