I hold a Master’s in Social Work from Fordham University and have spent years supporting young people as a school social worker within the NYC Department of Education. My work has focused on helping students with ADHD, learning differences, and executive functioning challenges build the tools they need to succeed both academically and emotionally. I bring a deep understanding of IEPs, special education advocacy, and social-emotional learning into every session, helping students feel seen, supported, and empowered.

My approach is strengths-based, trauma-informed, and highly individualized. I’ve worked with children and teens in classroom settings, one-on-one, and in small groups—helping them improve focus, manage time, stay organized, and develop confidence in their unique learning styles. I also bring a creative lens to my work, particularly in the area of writing. I help students find their voice through storytelling, journaling, and expressive language—especially those who struggle with self-expression or motivation in traditional academic settings.

What sets me apart is my ability to build authentic connections with young people. I meet students where they are, offer consistent structure and encouragement, and celebrate their progress along the way. Whether we’re building executive functioning skills, managing school anxiety, or unlocking creative expression, I’m here to support the whole child—not just their academic performance. I believe that with the right tools, support, and self-belief, every young person can thrive.

ADHD

ADHD

As a trauma-informed ADHD tutor and executive functioning coach, I specialize in helping kids, teens, and young adults build focus, organization, and confidence. With a Master’s in Social Work from Fordham and years of experience in NYC schools, I understand how to meet neurodivergent learners where they are. My approach blends structure, creativity, and emotional support to help students thrive academically and personally. Whether your child needs help staying on task, managing time, or expressing themselves through writing, I’m here to help.
Creative Writing

Creative Writing

I help children, teens, and young adults find their voice and build confidence through creative writing. With a Master’s in Social Work and years of experience supporting diverse learners in NYC schools, I bring a trauma-informed, emotionally attuned approach to every session. Whether we’re writing poetry, personal narratives, or imaginative stories, I create a safe space for self-expression, skill-building, and authentic connection. My goal is to help students not only strengthen their writing—but also feel empowered by their own ideas.
Executive Functioning

Executive Functioning

I’m a former school social worker who loves helping kids and teens build focus and organization skills in a kind, patient way. I understand how tough it is for parents to watch their child struggle and how it can affect the whole family. Together, we’ll create gentle, creative strategies that help your child feel more confident and make school and home life easier. My goal is to support your child’s growth while easing stress for your family.
