INDIVIDUAL TEEN & ADULT THERAPY

People seek therapy for a variety of reasons:

  • emotional or behavioral problems

  • crisis/trauma (past or present)

  • relationship issues

  • depression/sadness

  • anxiety/panic attacks

  • grief/loss

  • anger

  • period of transition/difficulty

  • self-esteem/self-worth

 

Whatever the reason, therapy can provide relief and growth for many people.  First, the relationship between the therapist and the client is paramount and is indicated to be the strongest factor for successful therapy.  I strive to create a safe, warm and comfortable environment where you can begin to explore your issues. It needs to be the right fit and I will check in on this at the start of our treatment journey. I also encourage you to openly communicate with me.

Collaborating with you, I will gently challenge your pattern of thinking and behavior so healthy change can occur.   As part of the therapeutic process, we build on your inherent strengths and find healthy coping strategies that allow you to heal and grow during difficult times.

Working with you at your own pace, you will find I utilize a combination of cognitive-behavioral and person-centered therapy and incorporate EMDR (www.emdria.org) as needed to process past trauma or to build on your strengths.  My role is to empower you to find more balance and joy in your life.

SPECIAL NEEDS PARENTING & SUPPORT

Additionally, I provide individual and group support to parents and siblings of special needs children.  As a mom of a special needs child myself, I understand the unique challenges that come with raising a special needs and/or medically complex child.  I am well-versed in autism, autoimmune disorders as well as epilepsy.

 

Often our road is a bumpy one, full of great joys, but also deep worries - presenting issues that differ from raising a neuro-typical child.  It can be an isolating journey and I would be honored to support you as you and your family navigate this path.
