Therapy for Teens

Being a teenager is a time of major growth and change. Teens often face increasing pressure from school, shifting relationships, and the uncertainty of preparing for adulthood. Even under the best circumstances, it can feel overwhelming.  

Therapy can bring about so much incredible growth and change during the teenage years, helping them build skills and confidence that will help them as they move forward into adulthood.

I offer a supportive and judgment-free space where teens can openly share their experiences, build skills to navigate intense emotions, and gain confidence about their future.

What Does Therapy for Teens Look Like?

Therapy with children and teens is all about building trust and creating a space where they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. Walk-and-talk sessions is a great method that can help kids and teens feel more comfortable opening up. I want my clients to feel in control of their sessions and move at a pace that feels right for them.

I value a whole-family approach to care. While maintaining the child's sense of autonomy and trust, I encourage parent involvement through regular check-ins. I utilize monthly parent consultations to provide an opportunity for parents to be aligned in their child's therapy, as well as to have support themselves. This ensures that there is meaningful progress both in and outside of sessions.
