About
Adolescence can be a very challenging time for teens and their families. Although developmentally it is a particularly wonderful time of exploration and curiosity for teens, sometimes things do not go as expected. Individual adolescent therapy and sessions incorporating parents and /or families can make this time much easier to negotiate. I see primarily adolescents, and often incorporate parents and families into treatment planning. Presenting issues may range from anxiety and depression to substance abuse and eating disorders where I hold additional certifications and trainings. I also see adults with persisting eating issues.
I create a safe and empathic environment for adolescents to help them identify their feelings and express them in healthy, productive ways rather than denying them, and in the process, hurting loved ones or hurting themselves. I use cognitive behavioral, relational and psychoanalytic oriented psychotherapy in my work.
I hold additional certifications and trainings from John F. Kennedy University and Stanford University in the treatment of eating disorders and adolescent substance abuse and addiction; I am the founder of Being Adept, a non-profit school-based organization dedicated to the prevention of alcohol and drug abuse among adolescents.
