Often the
adolescent
population struggles with connection with adults and especially adult therapists.
We all have challenging times in our life where we struggle with issues that can feel overwhelming. Often we can find a solution on our own, but at other times we may need to get support from someone who can be objective, supportive and focused on us. â;' I licensed therapist specializing in helping individuals, couples, and adolescents struggling with challenges related to addiction, attachment, relationships, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and loss, and eating disorders.

As a parent, it's so hard to watch your
teen
or young adult struggle. You know they're capable of so much, yet they seem to be sidelined by lack of energy, confusion about who they are, and an inability to see a bright future for themselves. I enjoy working with teens and young adults who struggle with tackling life. I'm skilled with helping young adults and teens who feel “stuck” – they know they're capable of so much, but they just don’t know where to start in making the life of their dreams happen. I know how to work with young people so that they gain much needed direction and confidence to allow them to soar!

EMDR is another approach we use to help the child/
teen
process their traumas.
As parents, we always want our children to be healthy and happy and right now, it is a particularly challenging time for many. Our passion is to work with children/teens to help with emotional, behavioral and relational challenges. We can work on a variety of areas such as suicidal thoughts, cutting, child abuse, bullying, trauma, ADHD, depression, and anxiety. Individual therapy will offer your child/
teen
an opportunity to discuss problems one-on-one with a trained specialist. The therapeutic bond is formed through both talk and play therapy (sandtray, toys, art, puppets, role playing and games).

Parenting a struggling
teenager
can leave you feeling lonely & helpless - but it doesn’t have to be. For years, I’ve worked with teens who struggle with anxiety, depression, ADHD, defiance, substance use, & much more...& I’ve learned that a little investment in therapy can go a long way in helping them make tough changes that lead to a successful future. Over time, I’ve developed strategies that allow me to quickly connect with teens, help them break through the systems & defenses that just don’t work for them anymore, & help them create new ways of relating to their world that increase their healthy connection to people & life.

Have you observed changes in the mood, behavior, eating, sleeping or overall attitude of your child or
teen
? Noticeable changes, such as forgetfulness, not listening, crying, tantrums, weight loss, "bad" dreams, talking back, or being irritable, might indicate the need for counseling. Children and teens experience anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and chronic illness just like adults.

A majority of my experience includes working with children,
teen
, and transitional age youth (age 16-26 years old).
My name is Shannon Walker and I began providing therapeutic services out of the calling to help those who truly want to heal. By taking a holistic approach to traditional therapy, I have come to discover that healing comes from the desire to change...because staying stagnant is no longer an option. I want to help you help yourself. If you are someone who likes a direct approach to understanding, connection, and communication, set up a free consultation and I would be happy to answer any questions you may have.

Do you experience symptoms related to anxiety, stress, worry, low self-worth, and depression? Do you frequently engage in unhelpful (negative) thinking? When engaging in chronic negative thinking patterns, called cognitive distortions, the way you see yourself, others, and the world become severely affected. We often filter our lives through this lens unconsciously. With the primary use of cognitive behavioral (CBT) and dialectical behavioral (DBT) strategies, I can guide you to redirect your unhelpful thoughts and manage your emotions for the purpose of empowering you to choose healthy behaviors.

Life can be quite an experience. Sometimes it goes along smoothly. We feel pretty happy and content. Other times it can become uncertain, even overwhelming. Handling all of the pressures and trying to find balance can become daunting. We may not do things as well as we used to and begin to feel that life is a struggle just to get through. Having support which allows you to find new and creative solutions can be just what is needed to help you get back on track.

Here you will find a compassionate & authentic space in which you learn to more deeply connect with yourself (and others), so you can finally discover what's behind your typical “knee-jerk reactions” & why your “go to” coping strategies seem to cause more distress than the original problems! Then we'll make meaningful shifts to uncover new and healthier ways to approach life and relationships. Clients often come to me for help with a broad range of concerns, like: trauma, anxiety, depression, pain, existential malaise, creative blocks, infertility challenges, grief, & family/relationship drama and communication difficulties.

My name is Gabriel Arroyo and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. My desire to become a therapist began when I was diagnosed with Juvenile Diabetes at the age of 10 and was faced with learning how to cope with this significant change in my life. This experience allowed me to learn coping skills and strategies to overcome struggles that we experience in life and provided me with a passion to provide that same knowledge to others. As a Therapist, my approach is free formed in order to build a respectable comfort between us to work as a team on goals with your existing strengths and skills.

You do not need to have a mental health disorder to seek therapy. Sometimes we just need someone to listen and provide extra support through life transitions and challenges. I'm pleased to be that person for you in your life. Everyone suffers from life's struggles, but healing begins through connections to both ourselves and the people in our lives. We all are resilient and have the aptitude to feel peace and acceptance with relationships and within.

Do you ever find yourself drowning in expectations, or struggling with not feeling like you are good enough, doing enough, being enough? You are not alone. So many of us get lost in trying to "be it all." In a society that is constantly moving and constantly changing, we can surround ourselves with unrealistic and unattainable expectations. Not only can our self-esteem and self-image become impacted, but our relationships can be affected. In today's world, where social media influences are everywhere, it can become difficult to remember that people show what they want to show... and want to hide the messy.

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.
