Dr. Morello sees children through adults for the treatment of diagnoses that include ADHD, anxiety, and mood disorders. One of her main specialties of practice in her field is identifying Autism Spectrum Disorders and working with patients who are “on the spectrum” across the lifespan. She also works with preschool age children (3 +) with social skills difficulties, emotional disturbances, and behavioral challenges, understanding the role early intervention has on a child’s future success. Dr. Morello values the therapeutic relationship she forms with each patient and their family, providing a warm and safe space to be heard and understood. She finds it helpful to include family members in the treatment of children and adolescents to best help her patients not only cope with stressors, but better communicate their needs with family members.

Dr. Morello is bilingual in English and Spanish, and has been professionally trained to work with patients in both English and Spanish languages for therapy and assessment services.
