Traci Hodes, PhD

Welcome to Kind-Hearted Awareness! For more than 20 years, I have been working as a psychologist with children, teens, and adults. Trained in New York City, first at New York University and then Fordham University, my work has taken me to both urban and more rural settings throughout New York and Connecticut. I have a wealth of experience in school districts, dealing with issues such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, and autism spectrum. In recent years, a particular passion of mine has been helping people of all ages to manage their stress by accessing mindfulness skills.
