The teenage years are the most vulnerable, exciting, and growing years of a young person’s life. Self discovery can often yield low self esteem, independence can easily shift to rebellion, and a slow maturation process often creates impulsive decision making. And when a parent’s warnings and worries don’t seem to have an impact on the teenager’s course, or when it feels too heavy to carry alone, it’s helpful to have another guiding force to help. Through counseling, an adolescent can feel understood, begin to understand themselves, and learn to understand and accept their role in the family and society.
I believe that a young woman with a strong sense of self will have the ability to live her happiest and truest life and can make a lasting impact on society at large. As a yoga-certified therapist, I frequently run a group that combines group therapy and yoga practice to help young women gain self awareness and a health connection with their bodies.
I also love working with small children. A child's emotions carry an amazing and natural ability to change and heal with proper care and support. However, children don’t always have the vocabulary or the insight to articulate their emotions in the same way adults do. Play therapy is an amazing resource to support a child through expressing their feelings.
