Navigating childhood and adolescence is often more complex than it seems. From academic expectations, social stress and identity development, many young people are feeling overwhelmed internally and uncertain how to manage a range of shifting emotions.

Throughout her career, Dr. Pucci has worked as a clinical psychologist within school settings, helping adolescent students manage anxiety, OCD, depression, executive functioning challenges, crisis moments, and major life transitions.

She founded her practice to provide focused, expert care for children, teens and emerging adults - and to partner thoughtfully with the parents raising them.
