therapy for Teens and young adults
I dream for all youth to feel safe in this world, confident in his/her abilities and character, and hopeful about the future. If you are a teen who has already faced difficult challenges, I am saddened you have already had to learn hard lessons. At the same time, I know that you have the opportunity to heal, grow, and persevere because of those very challenges. If you are teen (16 and older), I will strive to help you:
· Build confidence in who you are and who you are becoming
· Stand up for yourself
· Connect with others who deserve your love and respect
· Communicate effectively so that you feel heard and understood
· Make choices that benefit you in the long run
· Develop healthy coping skills
· Feel excited and hopeful for the future
· Achieve your dreams
family therapy
Parents: Surprise! I have that parenting handbook you’ve been looking for all this time! Sigh. If only it were that easy, huh? And raising a teen has its own set of challenges. There is a reason they say parenting is the hardest job in the world. You have such an enormous responsibility to keep your child safe, foster self-confidence, instill strong morals and values, provide the right balance of nurture and discipline, teach responsibility, and promote autonomy.
It is normal for parenting to evoke emotions such as shame, frustration, and fear. I know it can feel very isolating or lonely because of the struggle of feeling like a failure or not good enough. Yet, I also know that you want the VERY BEST for your child. If you are a parent seeking family therapy with a teen (13 and older), I will strive to help you and your family:
· Feel connected through trust, empathy, and honesty
· Learn and use effective communication strategies
· Prioritize and plan around issues of safety
· Heal family wounds
· Support each other through healthy coping strategies
· Balance autonomy and inter-dependence
