for
Teens
Adolescence is an exciting time, but it can also be overwhelming, and sometimes even scary for both you and your teen. Your teen is test-driving his or her self-perceptions, caught between the safety and fun of being a kid and the responsibility and freedom of being a grown-up.
The push and pull can cause your child emotional struggles that may leave you feeling frustrated and confused by your teen, wondering how you can not only streamline the transition, but also minimize your own feelings of anxiety and doubt.
In therapy, your teen will learn to better communicate emotional needs, gain self-confidence, establish safe boundaries in both friendships and romantic relationships, and identify values and priorities.
Some issues I work with include, but are not limited to:
Family conflict
Depression
Self Harm & risk-taking behaviors
Anxiety
Self Image and insecurity
College/Future stress & planning
Grief & loss
Processing parental separations & divorce
Lack of motivation & goal setting
Foster/Adoption Issues
