Preteen Therapists in East Longmeadow, MA

My background is in special education. I have been working with children, adolescents, and families as a school psychologist since 2004, and in private practice since 2014. I specialize in working with children and adolescents (10-16), and young adults (18-25) and treat adjustment disorders that are associated with low academic achievement and school stress (i.e., social anxiety, depression/low self-esteem, ADHD, executive dysfunction, learning disabilities, etc.). I have available hours between 3:00 pm & 6:00 pm on Tues., Weds., and Thurs. Call me for a personal consultation!

I offer compassionate and practical psychotherapy for mental health and substance use challenges, with a focus on teens and young adults. I believe all people are capable of forging a healthy path in life, one which includes self-awareness and acceptance, strong connections with others, and progress towards their own growth and positive goals. As your therapist, I would offer you both support and strategies for developing resilience as you move through this stage of your life's journey.

Are you working towards developing and enhancing your personal goals? Does anxiety, depression, or self-esteem impact your ability to meet or exceed your goals? Would it be helpful to work on problem solving issues? Would you like to strengthen the positive relationships in your life? I am here to help.

Individuals who seek help are incredibly courageous, and I am grateful to be a small piece of their journey along the way. My approach uses various modalities that are both, structured, and unstructured, depending on the needs of those I'm serving. Everyone deserves to have an opportunity to feel relief, joy, grounding, and security. This looks different for all, and I'm happy to adapt as needed while supporting in reaching the ultimate goals outlined.

Does your family need help navigating relationships? Many people face challenges that affect numerous areas of their life such as the way they think, feel, and act. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, and transitional-age youth in a therapeutic environment to help them overcome their obstacles using strength-based and client-centered techniques while emphasizing a cognitive-behavioral therapy approach. I believe that by working together with clients they gain coping skills/insight and learn how to foster healthy and happy relationships where they can be successful in reaching their goals

Hi! I am Kayley and I have been a therapist for over 6 years working with children, Adolscents, adults, couples and families. My goal is to create a calm and supportive environment to work with you, at your pace, towards your goals you want to accomplish! I work to create an environment where everyone can feel heard and validated amd be supported into working on the goals you want to achieve. I specialize in working with children, adolescents, young adult and adult populations, mostly in an individual setting.

We often rely on survival skills we learned as children to navigate the world. These skills helped us feel safe and taught us how to view and interact with the world. However, some of these ways of surviving now impede our ability to form deeper connections with others and ourselves. Our marriages become challenging, family interactions feel hollow, and we struggle to be vulnerable due to fear of judgment. This fear prevents us from connecting with others, setting boundaries, and making better decisions. At Tribe Institute, we help you discover the generational patterns that have helped and hindered you.

Therapy is much more than talking out your thoughts. I believe when engaged in therapy individuals feel supported, validated, empowered and encouraged to overcome or get through anything. Therapy is effective in dealing with a wide array of life’s most stressful issues including past trauma, anxiety, job or relationship issues, life transition, loss or just not feeling or functioning your best. I look forward to helping people build skills, think critically about their habits and work towards a better quality of life.

Navigating adolescence and young adulthood can be a challenging journey, often leaving individuals feeling overwhelmed as if they're grappling with their daily struggles in isolation, compounded by the pressures of anxiety and the incessant demands of social media. If you're finding it challenging to navigate through these feelings of stress, consider engaging in a conversation with me.
