Teens and Adolescents

  • Anxiety & Overwhelm

    Is your teen feeling constantly stressed, anxious, or emotionally on edge? Whether it’s school pressure, social anxiety, or a general sense of overwhelm, therapy can help your teen learn how to slow down, understand their emotions, and build healthy coping tools. Together, we work toward helping them feel more grounded and empowered.

  • Depression & Low Mood

    If your teen is withdrawing, seems unmotivated, or just “not themselves,” they may be dealing with depression — even if they don’t have the words for it. Therapy gives teens a safe space to talk about what’s really going on beneath the surface and to begin reconnecting with themselves, their interests, and a sense of hope.

  • Self-Esteem & Identity

    Adolescence can be a time of deep self-doubt. Many teens struggle with confidence, self-worth, or questions about who they are. In therapy, your teen will have a safe space to explore their identity, work through negative self-talk, and begin developing a stronger, more compassionate relationship with themselves.

  • Family & Relationship Stress

    If your relationship with your teen feels strained — or if they’re struggling in friendships or dating — therapy can help them develop clearer communication skills and emotional insight. I work with teens to better understand their relationships and express themselves in a way that creates more connection and less conflict, both at home and in their social world.

  • ADHD, Focus, & Motivation

    For teens with ADHD or executive functioning challenges, everyday life can feel exhausting and frustrating — for both them and their parents. Therapy offers support that’s both practical and compassionate: helping your teen build self-awareness, emotional regulation, and strategies that fit their unique brain.

  • Life Transitions & Big Emotions

    Whether it’s starting high school, dealing with a move, navigating social changes, or facing the unknowns of life after graduation, transitions can bring big emotions. Therapy provides a consistent space for your teen to process what they’re going through and develop the resilience and self-trust they need to move forward.

  • Perfectionism & Fear of Failure

    Many high-achieving teens are silently overwhelmed by the pressure to be perfect — in school, sports, friendships, or just in how they show up every day. I help teens unpack the unrealistic standards they place on themselves and learn how to strive in healthy ways that don’t come at the cost of their mental health.

  • School Stress & College Prep Anxiety

    Between homework, deadlines, exams, and the pressure of planning for college or the future, school can feel overwhelming for many teens. If your teen is struggling to keep up or feeling anxious about what’s next, therapy can provide a supportive space to manage academic stress, navigate big decisions, and build confidence in their path forward.
