Is your teen stressed, overwhelmed or more irritable now than ever? Maybe you don't know what's going on inside their head and are exhausted trying to help them manage their ever changing feelings? Perhaps your teen doesn't seem happy or doesn't seem like themself anymore. Counseling can help you and your teen navigate these issues. I offer a flexible schedule and after school sessions available as early as this week.
I help with teenage stress, trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and life transitions with tweens, teens and adults. With over 13 years of experience, I've been able to help hundreds of teens and their families navigate their difficult experiences. And, I can't wait to help yours too.
I utilize an approach to therapy that is strengths based, holistic, and grounded in theory. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, painting, yoga and spending time with family. If you have questions or want to schedule an appointment, contact me anytime by phone or text at 240-274-5680.

I work with clients who may be struggling with depression or trauma related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we will delve into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.
