About
I work with most ages but I really love working with teens! I worked for two years as a school based therapist working with teens experiencing depression, anxiety, identity issues, self-esteem, stress, and even suicidal thoughts and self-harming behaviors. Connecting with teens comes naturally to me, and my teen clients often comment on feeling at ease and safe with me.
Some parents are apprehensive about getting their teen counseling. I understand and can help put those fears at ease. Therapy sessions are a chance to explore how your teen can heal and grow and while they may talk about their family, you’ll get no judgement from me! I’d love to take this journey with you!
The heart of therapy is simply a conversation. We explore emotions. We process thoughts and ideas. We revisit the past and consider new possibilities. You will have a safe, compassionate place free from judgement; holding space for your thoughts, experiences, and emotions. It won't always be easy, but we will make the journey together.
