Perhaps you're tired of the same old thing: You walk into a therapist's office, sit down and wonder, "Can this person really help?" In my office, I may be the expert, with a PhD in clinical psychology and almost 20 years of experience, but my expertise is in guiding you toward your own wisdom and your own concept of healing. If you struggle with inauthentic relationships that are disconnected, empty or wanting, know that our work is about connection, authenticity and creating a full rich life. Common struggles I see are anxiety, depression and trauma in adults, kids and couples. Bring your family, your partner, even your pets.

Life can bring uncertain times and circumstances that can lead to anxiety, sadness, feelings of despair and a lack of options. There are so many aspects of our lives (family, upbringing and traumatic events) that we cannot choose or change. No matter how imperfect you think your life story is in this “now moment,” please know that you deserve to feel love, happiness and peace. We live in a society and culture that emphasizes happiness defined by status, material items and wealth rather than a life filled with peace, balance and contentment within ourselves.

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.
