You deserve to feel connected and safe in your closest relationships. It is lonely, painful, and frustrating when those relationships aren't going as you'd like. You may be confused about how to help a child who is struggling. You might wonder if you're making the right choices for your child and you may even worry that you're a bad parent. Or, maybe you feel disconnected from a partner. You long to feel close to the person you care about, but years of hurt and bottled up emotion make it difficult to know where to start.

Adolescents is a time filled with continuous change that can bring unique challenges to each individual, ultimately making this a difficult time for not only teens but families too. Adolescents marks the transition from childhood to adulthood and includes those ages 13-25. It is an intensely important developmental stage in which teens develop a sense of self, independence, boundaries, social connections, communication and emotional regulation skills. Accomplishing these tasks is no easy feat and often conflict arises. This is where I can help!
