Being an adolescent is challenging! Being a parent or guardian to a teen can be just as difficult to navigate. Finding the right balance of encouraging autonomy in your teen, while still providing oversight and guidance, is key to preparing them for the real world. Adolescence is a period of self-discovery and understanding their place in the world, especially in comparison to their peers. This can bring about feelings of stress, worry, frustration, confusion, and possibly self-doubt.
As a child and adolescent therapist, I have worked extensively with youth and families dealing with anxiety, depression, family/peer conflict, grief and loss, life transitions, suicidal ideation, crisis intervention, PTSD and trauma. My approach is grounded in systems work and evidenced-based interventions to offer long-term positive outcomes and change.
Making the decision to begin therapy is a brave step. I understand and respect all cultural perspectives around mental health and tailor my approach accordingly. I value the therapeutic relationship and work to build genuine trust and rapport. I aim to help my clients feel safe and realize they have a true advocate and partner in their therapy journey.
