Waking up to a new day, but it's like déjà vu all over again. The daily grind feels more like an endless loop of the same old routine, and despite the wins, something's missing. It's like living in Groundhog Day, minus the comedy. Behind the scenes, there's a tug of war happening. Success? Check. Anxiety? Triple check. It's a weird mix of "I'm doing okay" and "What am I doing with my life?" that's hard to ignore. Want to find meaning in the midst of the chaos? Learn to stop avoiding the "boogie monster", stop people pleasing, gain perspective, and set boundaries for yourself. Get in the driver's seat again. I see and hear you!

You're already feeling overwhelmed and things continue piling up. You question whether your unhappiness is situational or if it has something to do with your past. You want to feel better, but life seems out of balance and you feel hopeless. You need help getting back on track and sorting through what is contributing to your low mood, anxious thoughts, or troubled sleep.

My practice focuses on helping children, adolescents, and adults who are challenged by anxiety, depression, and self-esteem; ADHD and executive functioning; screen time and tech issues; sexual, physical, and/or emotional abuse; co-dependency and other relationship issues; anger management, and adjustment to transitions and new stages in life.
I have seen time and time again the transformative impact of therapy on people of all ages. It can restore us to a place of peace and comfort or help us reach new levels of growth and fulfillment. It can help move us beyond the moments we feel stuck, overwhelmed, or alone. Likewise, it can help our children move past their self-doubt, difficulty managing their emotions, or sense of being lost in life. In either case, I want you to know you are not alone, nor were you meant to face the challenges of life without help. I will do everything I can to help you and your family embrace life, overcome challenges, and create possibilities.

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.
