I have over 20 years of clinical experience. I have worked with teenage/adolescent boys, children, and young men in just about every sector within this demographic. I have experience in treating adult men who are struggling with emotional regulation and their ability to effectively relate and communicate with their families/spouses. I am skilled at providing "parent coaching;" a modality that provides parents who may be struggling with their child/teen insight, understanding, and applicable solutions on how to improve their relations. I have extensive experience working with couples as well.

Child, Teen, & Family Therapist! I believe in treating the whole family to support growth and effective change. My experience has allowed me a variety of settings (outpatient, agency based, partial and inpatient hospitals, school systems) which have enhanced my skill set to support treating a spectrum of needs. I appreciate working with a young person and their support system from a place of mutual understanding. I am not afraid of a challenge but I think it's helpful to have a starting place of willingness. I do find it important to go at a client's pace, including their voice & choice in what treatment may look like.

Finding a place to explore the way things are, have been, and the way we want them to be is an essential goal of successful therapy. We may need support in healing, looking within to better understand what in our lives has contributed to difficulty, discouragement, and disappointment. Understanding problems leads to finding solutions to conflicts within and between ourselves and others, so that healing can take place.

The approach I take is a psychodynamic conversation with the individual(s) about what struggles and conflicts are present in their life. The goal of therapy is to identify the patterns of thinking and feeling, (positive and negative) that a person is using to manage the relationships in their life and to discover ways of adjusting those patterns to create a more positive experience of oneself and others. Therapist and client work together to understand and modify habits of thinking, feeling and behaving that create a stronger sense of self and happiness.

Teen 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.
