Scientific strategies for high achieving teens with anxiety, distraction, or OCD.

About Me

I support high-achieving teens navigating anxiety, distraction, or OCD, helping them build resilience. My approach uses scientific strategies to equip them with practical tools for managing pressure and enhancing focus. We work together to understand their unique challenges, translating insights into clear, actionable steps. This tailored guidance helps teens thrive academically and personally, ensuring well-being supports their ambitions.

Approach

I turn understanding into short, practical experiments that map onto school deadlines, routines, and social moments. Sessions in my Houston office or via secure video move at a steady, focused pace—brief skill practice, reflective check-ins, and between-session tasks that fit busy calendars. We name unhelpful cycles, test small behavior changes, and practice acceptance-based skills so attention and worry become easier to manage. This way of working tends to suit teens who want clear steps, measurable progress, and room to keep aiming high.
