Your kid used to be easier to reach. Now every conversation feels like a minefield, or there's no conversation at all — just a closed door and a "fine" that clearly isn't. Maybe they're anxious in ways that come out sideways, as anger or exhaustion or shutting down completely. Maybe you're lying awake wondering if this is normal teenage stuff or something more. You don't need another person telling you to "just talk to them."
I've spent years working with kids and teens at their hardest moments — I ran an adolescent inpatient program, so I know how bad things can get, and how to help before they do. I teach real skills for handling big emotions, not just a place to vent. Your kid doesn't have to love therapy to get something out of it.
You don't have to keep guessing whether this is serious enough to get help. It's okay to reach out now, before it gets worse.

I am a private-pay practice for ultimate clinical privacy & specialized care. I provide a superbill after each session and submit it for you through Reimbursify, so there's nothing extra for you to manage for potential out-of-network reimbursement.

For teens: help for anxiety that won't shut off, sadness that looks like anger, meltdowns too big for the house. I use DBT for real emotional skills, and Collaborative Problem Solving to find what's really in the way. I've run adolescent inpatient/PHP programs, so I know how bad it can get — and how to help before it does. For kids, play therapy reaches what they can't yet say.

DBT — concrete skills for handling intense emotions: riding out a panic spike, cooling down before a blowup, tolerating distress without it taking over. Structured and practical. CPS — instead of managing behavior, we find what's actually in your teen's way, so the same fights stop repeating. Play Therapy — how younger kids process big feelings without needing the words yet.
