Are you a teen or young adult feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, academic pressure, social or relationship stress, or major life transitions?
Maybe you’re a parent watching your child struggle and wondering how to help?
I specialize in working with teens and young adults who are bright, capable, and motivated, but feeling stuck, anxious, or emotionally drained.
Today’s adolescents and young adults are navigating intense expectations, social media pressures, identity development, and constant comparison. Together, we’ll slow things down, understand what’s driving the stress, and build practical tools to help you feel more grounded.
I frequently work with high-achieving teens struggling with anxiety and perfectionism, students adjusting to or having difficulty in college, young adults managing anxiety, depression, or relationship stress, individuals exploring identity and life direction, and individuals who have had traumatic experiences
My approach is warm and collaborative. I integrate evidence-based treatments such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), focusing on emotional regulation, coping strategies, and strengthening resilience. Therapy with me is active and goal-oriented; we will work toward building insight and making meaningful changes.
