Understanding Teen Therapy

Adolescence is a time of incredible growth and change, but it can also be overwhelming. Teen therapy provides a safe space where young people can explore their thoughts and feelings without judgment, develop healthy coping strategies, and work through challenges they're facing.

I work with teenagers using approaches that respect their developing independence while providing the support they need. My experience includes helping teens navigate anxiety, depression, identity questions, academic pressure, and family relationships.

Why Teens Respond Well to Therapy

When teens feel heard and respected, they're more likely to engage in the therapeutic process. I focus on building trust and creating an environment where they feel comfortable being themselves.
