Herein lies the heart of my practice as a behavioral therapist. Together, we will determine goals for your teen's treatment and will create a comprehensive intervention plan tailor-made to fit your family's needs and address all of your concerns. This can include but is not limited to addressing emotional disturbances and working on regulation techniques, building social skills, and improving age-appropriate independent living skills.

This temporary therapeutic model is for parents who need help addressing specific behavioral issues at different developmental stages. Typically running from 3 to 6 months in length, these plans are created by Kristina when deemed appropriate and vary depending on the behavior or environmental factors. Contact us for an assessment to see if this would be the right service for your family!

Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) is based on the work of Dr. Steven Hayes. The ACT curriculum helps children and teens to accept difficult feelings, commit to their goals for improvement, and take action to change towards those goals. We use the ACT and AIM curriculum by Dr. Mark Dixon and Dr. Daliliuanas to facilitate. Contact us to learn more and find out if this could be right for your child.

Behavioral Sexology is a subfield of behavior analysis that focuses on addressing socio-sexual and overt sexual behaviors. This service can help support your pre-teen or teenager in navigating their new and changing relationship with their body and their changing peer dynamics in a healthy and appropriate way.

This is an option for families whose children are experiencing most of their difficulties at school. We will come into the classroom and assess the behavior in real time and meet with your children's teachers and staff to build a supportive plan to best address the problematic behavior during school hours. This Behavior Support Plan will be kept on file for the school to use to help support your child as they grow. This includes a follow-up session for parent support and integration at home as well as one update to the plan as needed for that school year.

*Subject to school accessibility.
