As a therapist I work with tweens, teens and young adults (11-25 yr. old) ,caregivers/adults. Adolescence can be fun and also can be stressful, confusing, and painful. I work with young people experiencing depression, anxiety, PTSD, emotional dysregulation/distress, relationship challenges, and who may identify as neurodivergent. I also work with parents/adults. As parents, whether our child is or is not willing to get therapeutic support, doing our own work to care effectively can have invaluable impact in our children's lives. I help parents to better understand their child, support regulation, and model effective skills. I have been a therapist for over 13 years and primarily use Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) in addition to Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and incorporate IFS in order to better understand one's self and system. It takes courage to reach for support and connecting and co-regulating means you're not alone in your distress. It takes a village and I'm here to help. Please reach out through psychology today or my website for a free 15 minute consultation to see if I might be a good fit for you.
