Teen Therapy
Supporting Teens Through Life’s Challenges
Adolescence can be overwhelming. Teens today are navigating more than ever before. Therapy provides a safe, confidential space where teens can express themselves openly, feel understood, and build tools to manage life with confidence.
Some of the struggles I support teens with include:
-
Anxiety and stress
-
Academic and school challenges
-
Social struggles or bullying
-
Family conflict
-
Body shame and low self-esteem
-
Substance abuse and addiction (including video games and social media)
-
Burnout and fear of "launching" into adulthood
-
Life transitions
-
Trauma
How Teen Therapy Works
Individual Sessions
I provide a supportive, confidential, nonjudgmental, culturally sensitive space where teens can explore their experiences, learn tools to navigate challenges, practice healthy forms of expression, and have their identity and voice respected and celebrated. I tailor therapy to your teen using developmentally appropriate talk, expressive arts, somatics/body, mindfulness, CBT, teaching emotional regulation, and EMDR...meeting them where they are at.
Parent Collaboration
Parents are an important part of the process. While your teen’s privacy is respected, we work collaboratively to:
-
Share general progress
-
Improve family communication
-
Develop supportive strategies at home
