I am a native Floridian who attended Pine Crest School in both Boca Raton and Fort Lauderdale.

Currently, I am a Florida licensed clinical psychologist in private practice. My training and work experience includes schools, medical centers, university-based clinics, hosp

itals, and private practices. As a knowledgeable professional, I have years of experience working with children, adolescents, and adults as well as couples and families from diverse cultural backgrounds. It is important to me to be an active, respected member of our community on both a personal and professional level. As the current President of the Florida Psychological Association (FPA) Palm Chapter, I lead the development and implementation of policies that will have a positive impact on the field of psychology and our community. Some of the other leadership positions I currently hold are Editor-in-Chief of the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP) Academy of Couple & Family Psychology newsletter, and Early Career Psychologist Board Member of the ABPP Academy of Couple & Family Psychology. In addition, I have my vendor badge approved by the Palm Beach School District Police Department. This allows me to provide services at any Palm Beach County school. I am also a qualified, court-appointed expert witness for Broward County and Miami-Dade County. I have been a featured guest on Miami’s radio station Power96.5 (owned by CBS Radio Stations Inc.) As a member of numerous local and national organizations, such as the Society for Family Psychologists, the Anxiety and Depression Association of America, CHADD (Children and Adults with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Boca Raton’s Promise, and many more, I stay involved and connected to a large network of professionals. Every Wednesday morning from 8-9am, I have a segment on the Steve O and Rene Show on WBZT radio, station 1230 AM. I discuss various mental health topics and answer questions live on the radio. Examples of these topics include relationships, divorce, behavioral management, communication skills, stress management, parenting, addiction, anxiety, depression, education, bullying, and so much more!

Children can’t meet expectations they haven’t been taught. Show them what to do, model respectful behavior, and give them plenty of opportunities to practice. Patience, guidance, and repetition build lasting skills. ❤️

Our job isn’t to keep our children happy at all times; it’s to raise kind, humble, resilient people with strong character. Teaching gratitude, responsibility, empathy, and respect helps children understand that the world does not revolve around them. Constant indulgence breeds entitlement and insecurity; loving boundaries prepare children for real life. ❤️

The small, everyday moments matter more than you realize. Showing up when you’re tired, listening without fixing, apologizing, staying calm, making room for big feelings, and helping the people you love feel seen and chosen; these quiet acts build safety, trust, and lasting connection.

They don’t just make you a better parent; they make you a better partner too. The patience, empathy, honesty, and willingness to repair that you practice with your children strengthen your relationship in ways you may not even recognize.

Your presence matters. You’re doing better than you think, as a parent and as a partner. ❤️

When your child says, “I can’t do it,” they may need support, not more pressure. Resilience grows when children learn they can struggle, ask for help, take one small step at a time, and keep trying without needing to be perfect. ❤️

Sometimes the most powerful response is: “I’m here. Let’s figure it out together.” 🤍

The way we speak to our children becomes the voice they carry within. Our encouragement, patience, accountability, and unconditional love teach them that they are capable, worthy, heard, and never alone. Choose your words with care; they can shape a child for life. 💙

Knowing what went wrong doesn’t mean a child has the skills to respond differently, especially when emotions take over. Correction alone isn’t enough. Children need calm guidance, practice, and specific tools to manage tough moments. The goal isn’t just better behavior; it’s building skills they can actually use when it matters. ❤️

Instead of only asking, “Why did you do that?” or reminding them of the rule, we can help them work out the next step:

“What could you do when you feel that angry again?”

“How could you tell me you need space?”

“Let’s practise what you could say.”

Children don’t just need correction after a hard moment. They need us to teach, practise and build the skills they couldn’t access yet.

Big life changes often begin with small, realistic habits. Choose one simple change, organize your space, care for your body, reduce distractions, or notice what brings you joy, and practice it for 30 days. You don’t need to transform everything at once. Small steps, repeated consistently, create lasting change. ✨

We rarely realize when we are experiencing a “last time…” The last the last request to be carried, or the last time a little hand reaches for ours.

The ordinary moments of can feel endless, especially during the exhausting days. But one day, the messy rooms, cuddles, little voices, and spontaneous hugs become the memories we would give anything to experience again.

Slow down. Hold them a little longer. Listen more closely. Take the picture. Soak it all in.

These were never ordinary days. They were the moments that would one day become everything. ❤️

Emotional resilience grows through everyday moments of connection, patience, and encouragement. Spend quality time together, make space for feelings, allow children to work through challenges, praise effort after setbacks, model that mistakes are part of learning, and guide them with thoughtful questions instead of immediately providing solutions. Healthy sleep, nutrition, and exercise also help children develop the strength to manage life’s challenges. ❤️

Loving your child doesn’t mean removing every obstacle. ❤️ Sometimes love means stepping back and allowing them to problem-solve, tolerate disappointment, make choices, learn from mistakes, and experience natural consequences.

The goal isn’t to make childhood harder; it’s to raise children who feel loved, capable, confident, and prepared to handle life’s challenges.

What’s one thing you’re learning to stop doing for your child?
