Are you an adult or adolescent individual who is tired of remaining in the shadows with your struggles? Therapy is the best form of confession that leads to true freedom from the strongholds that keep us from becoming the best versions of ourselves.
I am passionate about serving adults and adolescents struggling with anxiety, depression, addictions and trauma. I am interested in rooting out those issues that have remained in the shadows and need to be brought into the light and dealt with. I encourage honest introspection and life application in order to achieve long term healing.

There is a gap between the way you wish life would be and the reality of life. Anxiety and Depression are just overwhelming and it makes it hard to connect to loved ones, get daily tasks done, and think clearly. You notice yourself feeling so disconnected. And you are finding it hard to have the drive to get things done. Where is the joy in life? You remember enjoying things but now everyday is just gray. You want to be able to feel like the Real You again! Not hidden by anxiety and depression.

Are you tired of pretending everything is fine? Maybe life has taken an unexpected turn or you are feeling stuck. Perhaps you have a child or teen who is struggling, are a young adult trying to forge your way in the world, are longing to be a mom or have lost yourself in the process. It can feel very isolating and as though no one truly understands what you are going through let alone figure out how to move forward. It’s okay to not be okay AND you do not have to stay that way.

Whatever it is you are seeking counselling for, many of the hurts we carry in our lived stories need far more room to breath and to be than we are given in our daily lives. My specialties are working with anger, grief, identity struggles, and relationship issues, yet I am well seasoned in working with anxiety, depression, and self-esteem and can offer companionship through many interpersonal hardships.

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.
