As a parent, you'd do anything for your child to be happy and successful. But when your child is struggling you can find yourself lost. Negotiating, talking it out, yelling, reasoning, and bribing haven’t worked. If you have a young child, you may find your life is now shaped around their moods, worries, or tantrums. Or maybe you have a teen, whose inner world feels increasingly out of reach for you and overwhelming for them. I want to help you and your child understand what’s happening and find a new path forward.

I am a caring, eclectic, and nonjudgmental therapist who specializes in working with adolescents, ages 12-24. I come from a place of empowerment and am trained in CBT, DBT, talk therapy, motivational interviewing, and superhero therapy. I am also in the process of getting certified in TF-CBT. I start where the person I am working with is and get to know them! I try different things with clients and see what they like and don't like, and we go from there. I don't believe therapy is one-size-fits-all. I love helping young people work toward their goals and feel better about themselves!

The journey through life can have difficult moments and sometimes we need additional support and guidance. Sometimes, we've been struggling with intrusive thoughts or want to better understand our feelings and/or behaviors. You don't have to be alone. Finding a therapist you can trust and feel comfortable sharing your innermost thoughts with can be challenging. I provide a supportive, nonjudgmental environment and believe in working in partnership with each person to help them develop and accomplish goals and learn the skills to live their best lives. I actively listen with a warm, empowering, and empathetic style.

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.
