Being a teen in 2025 is complicated. Being a parent in 2025 may be even more complicated. You can see that your kid is struggling, but they don't want to talk to you. Maybe you're worried they're getting involved with the wrong friends, or even suspect they are struggling with self-harm or substance use. Maybe they're refusing to go to school and isolating in their room. Sometimes navigating life's challenges, as a kid or parent, is really difficult, especially if you're also struggling with your mental health. You don't have to try to figure it out alone, let's figure it out together.
I have experience working with individuals and families working through a wide range of challenges including self-concept, defiance, anxiety, depression, self-harm, substance use, autism, and trauma.
Figuring things out on your own is hard. Asking for help is even harder. Please don't hesitate to reach out for a quick call to see if I'm the right therapist for you and/or your child.

I believe that view of self is a huge contributing factor to many other things such as anger, depression, and anxiety. If we can begin by addressing your self-concept first, we'll be able to have better success working through other challenges.
