Is your teenager experiencing anxiety or depression? Does your teenager often isolate and feels that no one understands them? Do you feel like parenting is hard, and want strategies for balancing your roles? Navigating through life as an adult can be complicated, so imagine how your teen might be feeling. While life can be unpredictable, deciding to try therapy doesn’t have to be. I have been empowering adolescents, adults, parents, and families for over 5 years. I love working with middle schoolers and teenagers to identify the tools and skills helpful for them to tackle life’s obstacles.

Life can be confusing and painful at times. Unexpected situations can leave us barely managing instead of thriving. I often think of the quote from the show Sweet Magnolias when one of the main characters says, "Life is insane, I am holding it together by ducktape and happy thoughts and I am near out of both." In my own experience, seeking therapy can bring insight and healing for all different people and situations, it just takes one step of courage to decide to begin.

You have this one life; it should feel the way you want it to! But maybe instead it feels overwhelming. Maybe you wonder "What's wrong with me?" "Why do I feel like this?" "Why can't I stop over-thinking?" "Why do I get overpowered by my feelings?" You've tried to change and you still end up feeling awful about yourself or disconnected & frustrated in your relationships. Are you ready to feel differently? To have more confidence in dealing with whatever comes each day? Do you want to have more control even when your emotions are strong? Let's change things! Life CAN feel the way you want it to. I'd love to help you learn how.

I have had the opportunity to work within very unique and challenging clinical settings, including within a school, within a psychiatric center, within a residential campus and for the past decade within my current outpatient practice. The aforementioned settings have afforded a wealth of empirically based mental health insight and training, while also allowing efforts to gather invaluable clinical experiences working with adults and adolescents, dealing with mental health issues ranging from anxiety, depression, Bipolar Disorder and various other personality disorders.

You may be reaching out for support at this time because you’re feeling stuck. When meeting with my clients for the first time and discussing what brings them to therapy, most share that they have tried everything that they can think of to address their concern. Perhaps they’re used to being able to “figure it out” independently but the current issue feels insurmountable. My approach to therapy is walking alongside you as you explore different parts of yourself, better understand your thoughts and emotions, reflect on where long-standing patterns may have come from, and move towards actions that align with your values.
