As a licensed clinical psychologist, Assistant Professor at Harvard Medical School, and Associate Chief of Integrated Behavioral Health at Boston Children's Hospital, I bring both frontline clinical experience and systems-level expertise to questions about youth mental health, technology use, family engagement, and behavior change.
 

My work focuses on helping organizations navigate issues including:

• Social media and adolescent well-being
• Digital wellness and healthy technology use
• Youth mental health trends and risk factors
• Family technology habits and parent concerns
• Child and adolescent development
• Product design considerations for young users
• Online safety and youth digital experiences
• Mental health communication and public education
• Healthcare innovation and behavioral health integration

I regularly advise organizations seeking evidence-based insights into how children, teens, and families interact with technology in real-world settings. My perspective is informed by years of clinical work with youth experiencing anxiety, depression, behavioral challenges, and technology-related concerns, as well as leadership roles focused on expanding access to mental health care at scale.

In addition to clinical and academic leadership, I have contributed expertise to national media outlets, healthcare organizations, government agencies, and industry partners. My work has informed discussions on youth mental health, digital wellness, family engagement, social media use, and emerging technology trends.

Clients engage me when they need practical guidance that bridges research, clinical reality, consumer behavior, and organizational decision-making. I translate complex psychological and behavioral science into actionable insights that help organizations better understand and support children, adolescents, parents, and caregivers.
