Life is full of messy bits, sometimes these are unforeseen issues that pop up out of our control and sometimes they are a product of our own design. Regardless, in a culture where we must present as put together, in control, etc., it gets a little hard to trudge the water. If we aren’t careful this can lead to emotional, behavioral, interpersonal, and self dysregulation. At Just Keep Swimming Counseling, LLC, and my group practice Keep Evolving Beyond Therapy, I strive to create a healthy, safe space in order to set goals for growth, face challenges, and gain introspection to be a fuller, healthier you.

Is your gifted, creative, or high-performing child struggling with anxiety, stress or confidence issues? Our younger kids can struggle with behavioral issues because they are overstimulated, bored, or just misunderstood in school. Our older teens may be overwhelmed, stressed, or even have thoughts about self-harm. Our kids have unique stressors related to perfectionism, sensitivity, high pressure, and social relationships. Sometimes these things can make it challenging for them to feel like they belong. Help your child discover a safe space to develop confidence and happiness by contacting me today.
GIRLS group is for high school girls. (Message me for the middle school girls waitlist!) This is a great group for neurodivergent teens looking for a place to practice relaxing in a group setting. In group, they have the opportunity to feel empowered, gain self awareness, develop positive coping mechanisms, improve daily problem solving skills, feel connected with other girls, and make healthy decisions as they grow. Topics include, but are not limited to: social anxiety, self discovery, positive body image, making choices, communication, understanding emotions, healthy friendships, self esteem, dealing with difficult issues, asking for help, and managing thoughts.

Your daughter’s goals are big, but her anxiety feels bigger.
Insecurity and self-consciousness seem to have sapped all her confidence.
It breaks your heart to hear how unkind she is when she talks about herself.
Comparisons to other people make her ashamed of her body and insecure about who she is.
Thinking about the future is overwhelming; planning feels like asking too much.
She wants to overcome these roadblocks so she can be the person she has always wanted to be.
But all that feels helpful is doom-scrolling and sleeping off these hard feelings.
Family dynamics and interpersonal relationship functioning are explored and how they affect self-esteem and self-acceptance. Offering an open and compassionate environment to everyone.

Radically Open DBT is a new evidence-based treatment that targets over-controlled coping, rigid behavioral responses, and emotional inhibition. ‘Self-control’ is usually seen as a good thing. However, too much self-control can cause difficulties. A growing body of research shows that excessive self-control is associated with problematic relationships, hyper-perfectionism, chronic depression, social anxiety, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive traits, and autism spectrum disorders. (Lynch, 2018). This in-person class introduces 30 skills of psychological health, including flexibility, openness, and fostering healthy connections. Learn and practice the principles of Radical Openness with intensely trained RO DBT therapists.

With adolescent clients I use the aforementioned modalities but in a developmentally appropriate and engaging way.
My work usually begins when someone has reached their breaking point. What’s worked in the past is no longer effective and there is a feeling of being stuck and/or hopelessness. Whether you are dealing with self harming behaviors, suicidal ideation, trauma, or difficulties regulating emotions, thoughts and behaviors I can support you. Through my practice I help clients develop self-awareness and behavioral strategies that can be practiced and infused into daily life. Let's work together on taking your next step.
