I am passionate about working with individuals, young adults, adolescents, and families on anxiety, depression, and trauma.
Hi, welcome! We have immediate openings, and we welcome professionals, students, all races, immigrants, and LGBTQ+ folks. Are you struggling with work/school, relationships, or past trauma? I offer a safe, nonjudgmental, compassionate atmosphere and listen deeply, using somatic, relational, and mindfulness-based modalities, including IFS and AEDP. I focus on trust, safety and care within the client-therapy relationship, as a foundation for lasting healing. Therapy sessions shouldn't be just talking about feelings but instead having a new experience, so you leave each session feeling different and better.

We can feel as though we are walking through a fog, unable to unlock this potential.

Sometimes it just takes that first step, recognizing that the more you take, the closer you are to exiting the fog and beginning the life you imagine.

What does therapy for teenagers look like?
When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.
How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?
There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.
How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?
It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.
How do you prepare teens for therapy?
You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
