Most of my child and teen clients look forward to therapy. I am highly successful in building a safe space and encouraging rewarding therapeutic experiences and positive change for children and teens. Does your child act unruly or have trouble managing small disappointments or changes without crying like the world has ended? Does your child or teen struggle with social skills, making poor choices, having low grades, or have low confidence? Have things turned to being unsafe in the home or school? Have you and your partner argued about how to handle your child? Turn that frown upside down!

I have worked extensively with adolescents and adults who suffer from anxiety, depression, anger management issues, self-esteem issues, behavioral issues, and substance abuse issues. I also work with people who have suffered trauma and experience symptoms of PTSD and ADHD. I have also found that a strong mind/body connection can be especially helpful for clients who have trouble with focus and concentration. Teaching clients to connect and trust in their own inner wisdom (sometimes called our "gut instinct") can help them have more confidence in their own abilities and the choices they make.

You're tired of the constant nagging and fighting. The tantrums are exhausting and embarrassing. You're constantly explaining yourself and you just don't understand why your child seems to ask the same question over and over. You've noticed your child is more irritable and becomes easily frustrated. You're not sure if your child's behavior is normal. Your child gives up when things become hard. You're constantly questioning yourself and you feel as though you're failing at this whole parent thing. You think something could be wrong. You want help. It's tough being a parent; WE get it! Together we will make things better.

Children and teens go through many changes and often end up having a hard time navigating all of these changes. The changes everyone is faced with today; especially since COVID-19, are causing people to feel lost and uncertain as to how to move forward. Your teen may be struggling with disordered eating, making decisions, and their social network. Your adolescent may be experiencing an increase in stress and anxiety due to the uncertainty of the future. You may be questioning your beliefs; exploring alternative practices. You need additional guidance and exploration to feel better and self-actualize. We can help you with this.

Hi Im Christina, I truly believe in building a trusting relationship that leads to the empowerment and growth of the client. As a mother of three and a lover of nature, i get that life is not always what we want or expect it to be, there are times when one's path is unclear and finding one's way becomes quite difficult. If you keep on doing what you've always done, you will keep on getting what you have always gotten. If you are not living your best life it is time to make a commitment to yourself and dedicate the time and energy to increase the quality of your life.
