Hi, I’m Jolie. I’m a warm, collaborative therapist who is passionate about helping children and teens build confidence, navigate social challenges, and develop stronger emotional awareness. I believe that with the right support, young people can learn to better understand themselves and thrive in their relationships with others.

​

My background includes working closely with neurodivergent adolescents—particularly those with social anxiety, autism, and ADHD. I specialize in helping kids and teens improve social engagement, regulate emotions, communicate more effectively, and manage challenging behaviors. I tailor each session to meet the unique needs of the child and family, creating a safe space where growth can happen at a pace that feels supportive.

My approach blends cognitive-behavioral strategies with a systemic perspective, meaning I focus on both the individual and the larger context of their environment, including family, school, and community dynamics. I strive to help my clients develop practical skills they can use in their everyday lives while also fostering long-term emotional resilience.

​

I’m currently completing my clinical practicum hours as part of my Doctorate in Psychology at Chestnut Hill College. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from Syracuse University, and I’m deeply committed to ongoing learning and professional development.

​

Above all, I aim to bring warmth, empathy, and encouragement to every session. It’s a privilege to walk alongside children, teens, and families as they move toward greater connection, self-understanding, and well-being.
