My area of focus and specialty has been with adolescents. Through working with teens I inevitably work with their parents and I'm comfortable working with adults as well on their own issues. I can also be a guiding hand to help them improve their parenting skills with a Love and Logic approach. I'm experienced with complicated family systems and truly believe that creating change for a teen requires work from the entire family to help support that change. Teens are malleable and are very capable of change if given the proper support.
Most commonly the clients I work with are dealing with issues such as depression, anxiety, anger, ADHD/learning issues, peer or family relational problems, low self esteem and trauma. My approach is grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and EMDR with a variety of other modalities mixed in to achieve the best outcomes.
If you've been thinking about making a change or addressing an issue do yourself a favor and act on it. People hope it's just a phase for them and will go away, but hope is not a strategy for creating the life you want to live. Be active in your own life and work towards creating health and balance. I'd be happy to help you through that process!
