In 2025, growing up with the added pressures of social media creates unique challenges for kids, teenagers, and young adults. Navigating the already complex process of forming an identity, managing peer and romantic relationships, working through conflict, and becoming more independent can be overwhelming.
Whether you’re a parent seeking support for your child or a college-aged adult looking for guidance, I’m here to provide a safe, supportive space to explore these challenges. When working with younger clients, I often use games and kid-friendly activities to facilitate conversations in a way that feels natural and engaging.
I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore life's challenges and an objective perspective to help make sense of the factors influencing thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. When working with kids, adolescents, and teenagers, I also prioritize building trust and maintaining open communication with parents as an essential part of the treatment process.
I also provide in-home ABA services to help manage behavioral challenges (private pay). It can be difficult to reach out to a stranger for assistance with your own or your child's mental health or personal challenges. Send me an email and we can set up a free consultation call to review what therapy looks like and if we'll be a good fit.
