Therapy for Kids, Teens & Families

A Little About Me

My Approach

Therapy doesn’t have to feel intimidating or like you’re just checking things off a list. I take a warm, humanistic approach that focuses on getting to know you as a whole person—your strengths, experiences, relationships, and what’s going on in your life right now.

I work with kids, teens, and families to create a space where you can feel comfortable being yourself, talk openly, and work through the things that are weighing on you. Depending on what you need, I incorporate practical tools from approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy to help you better understand your thoughts and feelings, build confidence, and make changes that feel meaningful.

Who I Work With

I provide individual therapy for children and teens, as well as family therapy for families who want to improve communication, strengthen their relationships, and better understand one another.

I commonly work with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, mood changes, anger, bullying, family conflict, and the everyday challenges that come with growing up.

Most importantly, therapy is a space where you don't have to have everything figured out. We can start wherever you are and take it from there.

How I Work

♡

Being a teenager can be complicated. Between school, friendships, family, social media, expectations, and figuring out who you are, it's easy to feel overwhelmed.

I work with kids, teens, and families who are navigating anxiety, depression, self-esteem, relationships, and the ups and downs of growing up. My goal is to create a space where you can be yourself, feel understood, and work through what's going on without feeling judged.

And yes, therapy can actually be something you don't hate coming to.
