Daniel B. Nicholas, PsyD

Are you feeling down or worried?Having trouble communicating with your spouse or teenager?Is your child having problems with attention, anxiety or frequent tantrums?Have you experienced a trauma? Things can get better. The first step is to get a careful assessment of the problem for either yourself, your child, teenager, relationship, etc. After the assessment, which may or may not involve testing, a evidence-based treatment plan will be developed with your input. We will then monitor how you and/or your family member are progressing. Other treatment options will be added as needed.
