Not accepting new clients
I work with clients seeking to address a wide variety of issues while fostering self understanding and personal growth. Having vast experience working with families in the community and students in a high school, I work with adolescents and their parents to address behavioral and emotional issues. In addition, I have developed a specialty in couples counseling, which comprises about half my practice. Utilizing Imago Therapy as my foundation, I teach how relationships can be a place of healing and growth, while coaching couples to utilize communication skills to create the understanding, acceptance, and connection for which humans long.

I believe we are all individuals on a unique journey and mental health treatment should align with that journey. Mental health should be valued just as much as physical well-being. Growing into the best version of ourselves doesn't have to be a difficult and impossible journey, it can be fun and exciting! We all need extra support and guidance sometimes and utilizing therapy is one of the healthiest ways to find that.

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.
