Ginger Lavender is not currently accepting new clients.
Have you or your child experienced a recent life transition? Are you depressed, sad, irritable, anxious, or stressed because of it? I provide support to adolescents and adults going through common but difficult life transitions. This includes marriage/divorce, child birth, blended families, career changes, school problems, or loss of relationships or loved ones. I would like to help you and/or your child find a new normal and new way of functioning! This may require digging deep; however a solution can be discovered!
I am trained in Trauma Focused CBT and Functional Family Therapy, which helps individuals and families affected by difficult life events. I have specialized experience with school related issues (special education, emotional disturbance, IEP, 504 plan, SST). I support clients identify their strengths and promote daily health and wellness.
What makes me unique?I enjoy working with tweens and teens who are experiencing difficulties. I am able to connect with most young minds and enjoy doing so. I am also drawn to the unique strength and struggles of women, and empathize with new and working mothers.
