You may be feeling overwhelmed— no matter what you try, the tension at home keeps building, your teen seems more distant, or anxiety and sadness are quietly taking over. Maybe it’s hard to talk without things turning into arguments, or your child is acting out in ways that feel overwhelming. If you're exhausted by conflict, silence, or emotional disconnection, you are not alone. I work alongside adolescents and families to help them navigate depression, anxiety, behavioral struggles, trauma, and relationship challenges with compassion, skill, and clarity. I help adolescents and families to dive deep and untangle what’s going on beneath the surface—whether that’s unresolved emotional pain, communication breakdowns, or intense patterns that feel stuck. My approach is warm, direct, and collaborative, and rooted in evidence-based practices such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). These approaches help teens and families build skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and more adaptive coping responses. Understanding the impact of family dynamics is central to my work. I utilize a family systems approach to address unhelpful interaction cycles, improve communication, and foster more connected relationships. Whether you're facing stress, trauma, anger, or ongoing conflict, I specialize in guiding teens and their caregivers toward greater insight, resilience, and emotional relief. The first step can feel intimidating, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you’re ready to feel more grounded, connected, and confident in your life or family, I’d love to help.
