Child Psychologist/Practice Owner

POPULATION: Parent Coaching Only

SPECIALTY: When kids, teens, and young adults struggle with tough issues like anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, social difficulties, and/or academic issues, it could seem overwhelming when trying to find help for them. My goal was to create a one-stop-shop where families could go to get the help they needed – whether it was through mental health therapy, online parenting courses, or free parenting educational resources. As such, I created Modern Parenting Solutions – a place staffed with talented mental health therapists ready to help your family or child overcome whatever difficulty lies in their path. We can help.

Parenting a struggling teenager can leave you feeling lonely & helpless – but it doesn’t have to be. For years, I’ve worked with teens who struggle with anxiety, depression, ADHD, defiance, substance use, & much more…& I’ve learned that a little investment in therapy can go a long way in helping them make tough changes that lead to a successful future. Over time, I’ve developed strategies that allow me to quickly connect with teens, help them break through the systems & defenses that just don’t work for them anymore, & help them create new ways of relating to their world that increases their healthy connection to people & life.

SPECIALTY: Tired of your child’s teacher complaining about your young child? Priya’s specialty is using play therapy techniques to gently, but expertly, teach your child how to better manage their impulsive behaviors and intense emotions so that you STOP getting complaints and START getting compliments from their teacher!

Priya believes that many young kids aren’t given the opportunity to SHINE in school due to their behavior or emotions, so her goal is to reinforce effective coping skills, highlight natural strengths and abilities,  and reinforce positive social skills – all of which will bring about positive changes for your child.

Priya comes to MPS with a ton of experience working with kids with ADHD, Oppositional Defiance Disorder, Separation Anxiety, Reactive-Attachment Disorder, etc. Her calm, knowledgeable, and playful personality helps her connect quickly with her young patients, while also allowing parents to feel confident that their child is in the right hands.
