Therapists for Teens in Charlotte, NC
When life gets stagnant, and you feel your are just repeating the same patterns that haven't gotten you very far, therapy is a place you can gain clarity. You want to show up better in your relationship, quiet the voices inside that are telling you "I'm not good enough" and blocking you from the life you know you can have. Therapy isn't only for when everything feels so overwhelming it's hard to even move. Therapy is also for when you know you can be stronger, calmer, more at peace.

You learned that to get through life, you must be perfect, “proper,” and stay invisible. But operating down this path comes at a cost: overwhelming pressure, self-hatred, and feeling like an imposter in your skin. Belonging has never been easy for me, especially as a child of Asian immigrant parents. The pressure to be "enough" for others or to offset the guilt I felt for all the sacrifices my parents made to succeed in the United States has contributed to my resilience and anxious attempts to hide my imperfections. So, this is an invitation to those who want permission to mess up, be imperfect, and recover from unmet needs.

It is no secret that parenting is hard. When you add your child’s mental health and/or behavioral health needs into the mix it can add another level of complexity. Children and adolescents often have difficulty managing their emotional responses, have limited communication skills, and limited coping strategies; this can impact how they engage in the world around them. I would like to help your child feel more in control and confident to take on whatever the world hands them.
