Adolescent Psychotherapy

My primary focus is to help adolescents acquire the inner resources to pursue healthier and more positive choices.

I have treated adolescents who struggle with a wide range of behavioral, psychological, and social difficulties. In my clinical experience, adolescents of all ages are receptive to genuine therapeutic support. They have a deep and powerful desire to be happy and successful. If your adolescent appears unhappy and withdrawn, psychotherapy can help. With therapeutic support, adolescents can feel happier and motivated to pursue healthier choices at home, school and with peers.

Commonly treated adolescent concerns:

  • Anxiety and Depression
  • Behavioral/ Discipline Problems
  • Academic Difficulties
  • Self-esteem Issues
  • ADHD
  • Autism Spectrum Disorders
  • Developmental Delays
  • Family Transitions (Divorce/Death)
Please note: I do not provide custody recommendations or participate in court proceedings regarding custody, time-sharing or other family court matters.

Parent Psychotherapy

As a psychotherapist and parent myself, I understand the challenges facing parents in today’s world.

When your child is having problems at home, school, or with peers, you are understandably concerned. I have advanced training in child development and parent education. I can help you understand the meaning of your child’s problematic behaviors. We can develop parenting strategies to guide your child toward more positive choices.

Avoid power struggles and learn what really works. It’s never too late to parent effectively and build a closer and more loving relationship with your child. As you learn to understand your child’s developmental needs and respond more effectively, you will feel better about yourself as a parent and learn to help your child feel happier as well.
