I specialize in grief counseling, trauma recovery, substance abuse, and adolescent self-harming behaviors.
Life is hard. Hope is found in facing the reality of your past and present. The goal of treatment that I strive for is for you to become all you were created to be; to be healed from the pain of the past, and move into the possibilities of the future. Whatever the past has thrown your way; whatever you are facing today; whatever future challenges are producing fear and anxiety, I would consider it a privilege to help you overcome your hurts, habits, and hang-ups. The past cannot be changed...the future is yet in your power. Don't let your past dictate who you are....Let it be part of who you will become.

I like to first get to know my clientele by building therapeutic rapport and then by formulating a treatment plan that is personalized or otherwise known as "person-centered" or "client-centered" therapy. This allows for me and the client to come up with a treatment plan that is based on their wants and needs that ultimately allows them to achieve their therapeutic goals. Every client's needs and wants are different and I am here to help navigate that through the therapeutic process. I have been in this profession for a total of 12 years between my education, field experience and providing therapeutic services.

Teen Therapists

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.
