Therapists for Teens in Salem, OR
I specialize working with adolescents (10-19 years-old) and young adults (20-34 years-old), and in the areas of trauma, anxiety, adjustment d/o, and teen issues.
It sounds "cliché" but I focus on meeting each client where they are from the very first therapy session. If you aren't sure what your exact issues, needs or goals for therapy are, you are not alone. I work with clients to identify key issues impacting daily life and contributing to their primary symptoms, develop treatment goals and objectives tailored to address the identified issues in a realistic way, and spending sessions working together to facilitate positive change.

Navigating teen years and early adulthood is challenging for many people. I work with young people ages 14-25 who are trying to gain independence while navigating the symptoms of Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, and Neurodiversity. Becoming an adult can be overwhelming and scary for some and I work with clients to learn personal and interpersonal skills to manage these fears and move step by step into the life they want to live.

My clinical framework is rooted in attachment theory, which reiterates the delicate nature of the relationship between mother and baby. This relationship is integral to everything in our world and yet we often trivialize this relationship and assume that if there is a happy, healthy baby, then our mothers should remain perfectly aligned. The truth is, we know that the journey of motherhood is far more complex and intertwined, than how society portrays it.

Life is like a roller coaster, constantly surprising us with twists and turns. Sometimes they provoke happy reactions, and other times it feels as though we have had the wind knocked out of us. Grief counseling is something that is near and dear to my heart. I have done grief counseling with clients ranging from the ages of 18-60. I work to provide a safe environment for clients to begin processing some very difficult and traumatic events in their life. I work towards the goal of creating an atmosphere of comfort for my client based on trust, empathy, and understanding.

Since I started my work as a therapist, I have been helping my clients heal from trauma, sexual addiction, and the life impacts of other problematic sexual behaviors and choices they have made that led them to feel shame, anxiety and depression. Through my training and experience working with clients I have become aware that the ways we as a society often respond to people who have suffered traumatic experiences are not always supportive to the recovery process.

I specialize in working with adults and children who experience trauma. Trauma can interrupt healthy development in the brain and body, particularly during formative years. I can assess, diagnose, and intervene with mental health disorders using evidence based treatment plans that target my client's unique goals. Risk assessment is another important aspect of trauma-informed care for clients with urges to harm themselves or others. I may involve my team of professional colleagues in treatment as needed, including more qualified LPCs, a skills trainer, and a yoga & movement instructor.

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.
