Hypnotherapy is the most effective modality to help you get to the root of the issue so you can move forward with your life! I specialize in people with trauma and chronic illness because I can relate, as I have been there before. I am passionate about helping people get to their best life as soon as possible.

Children are faced with new challenges, some of which are unique to their generation. It can be a struggle to find the balance between parent and friend. It takes a while to work up the nerve to even have a conversation with your child, and then..they blow you off. Despite your best efforts, talking, good cop/bad cop, rewards, consequences, you just can't get through to them. The tension is getting thicker, arguing more often, and disciplining is just not working. Let's work together to help your child grow and learn through life's many challenges.

I have worked extensively with teenagers with internalizing symptoms--anxiety, depression, low self-esteem etc., as well as teens who externalize--disrespectful, break curfew, skip classes, steal, etc. Having guided many teens through these strange and difficult times, I can help ease some of the tension at home as well as increase connection between you and your teen.

Self-Harming Therapists
Self-harm (SH) or deliberate self-harm (DSH) is the deliberate infliction of damage to your own body. It includes cutting, burning, scratching, banging or hitting yourself, interfering with wound healing, and the ingestion of toxic substances or objects. While self injury (SI) can look like suicide, it's not; most people who mutilate themselves do it as a way to regulate mood. People who hurt themselves in this way may be motivated by a need to distract themselves from inner turmoil, or to quickly release anxiety that builds due to an inability to express intense emotions.

If you're looking for help with self-harming in Fort Lauderdale or for someone who self harms, or cuts themselves, or bangs or hits themselves, these Fort Lauderdale therapists provide counseling for self harming in Fort Lauderdale. They include therapists, who understand self harming in Fort Lauderdale, psychologists and counselors. They can provide self harming counseling in Fort Lauderdale or treatment for self harming.
