Teen Counseling (12-17)
It can be incredibly stressful and painful to watch our kids struggle. Whether it is anxiety related to maintaining friendships or academic success, we simply want our kids to be well - happy, well rested, in positive friendships, feeling good about themselves. Therapy can feel like a last resort - but it is a great place to learn how to build resiliency and coping skills that will serve them throughout adolescence and into adulthood. One of my core beliefs as a therapist is that working with pre-teens and teens should be a collaborative process with the family. Too often, parents are left in the dark about what’s happening in sessions and end up feeling disconnected or unsure how to help. While I always maintain confidentiality (unless there’s a safety concern), I like to keep parents informed about the skills and strategies we’re focusing on in therapy. Sessions often include practical skill-building, and I share simple ways for parents to support those new tools at home. With your teen’s permission, I also encourage brief parent–child check-ins so we can make sure things are moving in a positive direction. It's a group effort!
Adult Individual Therapy
Life with anxiety can feel like a frenzied balancing act — trying to succeed in "adulting," maintain close relationships, meet all daily responsibilities - all while trying to quiet the “what ifs” and endless imagined catastrophes in your mind. When you pile on things like trauma, depression, or adult adhd - well every day can turn into a struggle. Many individuals describe feeling trapped in cycles of self-doubt that make it nearly impossible to be present in the moment. In therapy, we’ll work together to understand where your anxiety comes from — the thought patterns, expectations, and old habits that keep you feeling tense or on edge. Using a mix of CBT, DBT, ERP informed, skills, you’ll learn practical tools to manage anxiety day to day, quiet mental noise, and respond to stress with more calm and clarity. Our sessions feel more like relaxed conversations with the focus on helping you feel more present, confident, and connected to others.
Treatment Approaches
Therapy draws from CBT, DBT, and ERP-informed approaches to help clients develop practical skills for managing anxiety and intrusive thoughts.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT helps you understand how your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors interact to keep anxiety going. In therapy, you learn to notice unhelpful thinking patterns and practice more balanced ways of responding so anxiety has less control over your choices.
Exposure Response Prevention Informed (ERP)
ERP-informed therapy helps you gradually change how you respond to anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or urges to “fix” or avoid discomfort. Instead of feeding anxiety through reassurance or compulsions, therapy focuses on building tolerance for uncertainty and helping anxiety lose its power over time.
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
DBT focuses on building skills to manage intense emotions, stress, and irritability that often come with anxiety. Clients learn practical tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and coping when anxiety feels overwhelming or hard to shut off.
