Child/Adolescent Therapy

Is your child or adolescent struggling at home or at school due to behavioral or learning problems? Is your child feeling anxious, depressed, or pressured by peers, which is causing them stress? Is your teen associating with different friends, staying out late, not following the rules, or running away? Are you tired of feeling worried and frustrated because nothing seems to help? I can help your child or adolescent get back on track.

My approach helps children feel more confident and empowered as they grow emotionally and improve behaviorally. By creating a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment, I can teach your family how to strengthen the parent-child relationship, improve communication, and develop stronger attachments.

Being a parent myself as well as working with children, teens, and their families for 15 years, I understand that finding relief for a child in need becomes an important priority. While I do meet with children and parents individually, sometimes it is beneficial to meet as a family. I invite you to contact me so that we can begin the healing process and discuss the best way that I can help and support your child and your family.
