TEENS
Are you a teen struggling with an issue that you need help with?
Sometimes life can get really hard. Sometimes we need more help than what our friends or parents can give us.
Whether it’s trying to overcome anxiety, depression, or social stuff that’s getting in the way of your life, there is help for you. Call me today to set up an appointment.




I have worked with many teenagers with all different kinds of issues and would like to support you with whatever you are struggling with.
Whether it’s body issues that are getting you down, or you may be injuring youreself, or facing problems with drugs or alcohol, or even your relationships with others.
It can feel like such a relief to finally talk to someone freely about what’s really been going on.




I hope you will reach out and let your parents know that you want therapy. Parents are usually glad that their child is reaching out for the help that they need. Simply ask for help and experience how good getting the support you need feels.
Let’s talk and work together to unravel what’s going on and equip you for the future to come. Call for an appointment now and start the process today.
Are you a parent worried about your teen?
As parents, we worry that our children could be in over their heads, and there may be times when your teen may need more than what parenting can provide. This is where therapy comes in. There is help for you—your teen, and your family.
