Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
Parenting your teen has nearly destroyed you. Their anger, depression, and self-destruction has devastated your entire family. Most days, you're barely hanging on by a thread. Your instinct is to protect, yet nothing you do seems to help. You feel alone and helpless. You're obsessing, hovering, and constantly questioning their state of mind. "What does she have to be depressed about?" "I don't understand; he has everything he needs." "Why would they do that?" You're expected to remain strong and contain your worst fears as you watch them unravel in self-defeat. Imagine having the support to know when to step-in, when to take a step back, when to listen, and how to communicate so that your teen really hears you. I can help you feel confident interacting with your teen without exhausting all of your emotional resources. I offer an integrative approach that combines collaborative treatment planning with yoga practices, with effective tools for families that are easy to implement. I'm available after-hours to help with those hectic situations that sometimes happen when most offices are closed. Visit my website to schedule your free consultation.
