Working with people who are exploring change is rewarding. This typically is with teens and young adults who may be having challenges with relationships, school, or life in general. In our first few sessions, we will look at what is important to you and steps you would be interested in taking. People see a change in their symptoms that brought them to therapy after a month or so!
