Psychologists and Therapists for Teens in Langwarrin, VIC
I follow a holistic approach, often centred on the practice of mind-body awareness to address any embodied stress and establish emotional balance, particularly during adolescence, for women's issues, relationship challenges, and other complex transformations including those related to different life stages or sexuality and gender affirmation journeys.
Hello, I work with individuals, couples and families who may be dealing with loss, grief, trauma or difficult life transitions. Many wish to explore the impact of these experiences on their identity or sense of self, often with or without ASD, ADHD, AuDHD or other diagnoses, and reflect on how this could be impacting on their relationships. Others wish to develop the communication tools to help feel seen, heard and understood. Together we navigate a range of challenges in a strengths-based way to reframe unhelpful thoughts, process internal conflicts and tune into deeper insights.

I work with individuals (14 years +), couples and families navigating life's struggles. I have a special interest in interpersonal relationships, life transitions, job stress, self-empowerment, life direction, and supporting those who may be feeling lost, overwhelmed, or alone in their experiences. People seek support for many reasons, whether they are facing something new or dealing with challenges that have been present for some time and no longer want to manage them alone. They are often seeking support, practical strategies, and someone to help them make sense of what they are experiencing.

The essence of my therapy is in building solid, safe relationships collaboratively with my clients, catering to the unique needs of each person in a non-judgmental way. Rather than tell someone what they need, I prefer a merging of minds to make meaningful and sustainable differences. Together we explore resources to overcome adversity and suffering whilst learning to accept and adapt to the complicated facets of life where required. My therapeutic approach is also rooted in a deep exploration of early life experiences, with a focus on understanding and facilitating the healing of trauma or patterned behaviour.

Many of the people who come to me have reached a point where they’re ready for something to shift. They’re tired of repeating the same patterns, feeling disconnected, or sensing that life could be different but not knowing where to begin. Some are navigating depression, anxiety, or grief; others are carrying the impact of trauma, family violence, or crime. Many are simply starting their personal development journey and feel unsure where or how to start. What they all share is a readiness to understand themselves more deeply and take steps toward meaningful change.

FAQ - Teenage and Adolescent Therapists
What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.
How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.
How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.
How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
