With over 20 years of experience in Canada and Albania, Jeta brings a multicultural, interdisciplinary, and evidence-based perspective to her practice. She conducts comprehensive psychoeducational assessments, provides behavioral consultations for children and youth presenting with autism spectrum disorder ADHD, learning disabilities, oppositional defiant disorder, anxiety, and trauma-related challenges.
