Hello all learners and parents!  My name is Mandy and I teach classes designed to help children reduce stress and anxiety.  I have 18 years of experience using techniques that are research-based and proven to aid in mind/body relaxation.  My goal is to help children learn to cope with and manage strong emotions through techniques they can use throughout their lives.

My academic background is in Clinical Psychology.  I have both a B.S. and M.S. in Clinical Psychology and have 20 years of experience working with youth.  I have worked in a therapeutic setting since 2004, teaching social skills groups, ADHD management groups, relaxation exercises, and play therapy sessions.  I have years of experience creating and facilitating children's social skills groups, as well as developing some of my own materials that were used in those groups.

As a psychometrist, I have extensive experience administering comprehensive neuropsychological evaluations and cognitive rehabilitation assessments, including vision therapy and neurofeedback, with children and adolescents.  I have worked with a wide range of diagnoses (ADHD, learning disabilities, physical disabilities, Autism Spectrum disorders, Dyslexia, behavior disorders, etc.), ages (age 2 to adult), and intellectual levels (severely delayed to gifted). 

숙제 제공
I do often assign homework because I believe that practicing social skills in person is vital for improvement. My homework consists of practicing the skills that were taught that week, and is relatively minimal.
