Child & Teen Counseling

Have you lost your voice due to the stress of life? Do you feel unheard by the people in your life? Have you felt like your emotions are all over the place and not understanding why? You are at a point in your life where you no longer want to be ruled by your emotions and long for a sense of peace. 

I can help you work through all of these emotions and more by creating a warm, safe, and nonjudgmental space. In this therapeutic relationship, you can share all your hopes, dreams, worries, and sadness. The goal of therapy will be to work through all the feelings you are currently carrying that may be trauma or stress-related which are a part of my specialties.

My specialty is working with adolescents beginning at age 13. I also enjoy working with adults and the LGBT community. I am a part of all these communities and with that knowledge as well as my years of experience I will help you map your journey of healing. The goal is for you to feel empowered and in control of your life.

I am passionate about giving you the skills needed to help manage your journey of healing. If you are ready to take the first step in getting the sense of peace you have longed for call today to schedule an appointment.

Are you experiencing an amount of stress or worry that you feel you can’t handle? Maybe you’re having a major life change you need help adjusting to? Have you experienced something in your life that has felt traumatic and it changed how you view life and respond to certain situations?  Has your child or teen been experiencing some difficulties in school or their behaviors have changed unexpectedly?

I am here to help you, or your child find the coping skills that work best for you! I believe everyone has their own unique ways of handling situations. There is no one right method for everyone. By creating a strong therapeutic relationship, we can work together to discover the tools that will help you live a happy and healthy life.

I have experience working with children, and teenagers in the areas of trauma, anxiety, social skills, bullying, anger management, and other school-related issues. I also have experience with adults facing traumatic issues, anxiety, depression, and anger, among other issues. I strive to create an environment where you or your child feels comfortable sharing your greatest concerns. Please schedule an appointment with me so we can work together to find the tools you need to live the life you want!
