When you are a parent of a struggling teen, you often find yourself asking what you can do to help to make them feel better. Sometimes you can feel helpless, or like you tried it all and you do not know what to do next. Their personality is different, they are making impulsive decisions and you worry things might get worse. Reaching out to a therapist may be a difficult decision to make. You could be worrying that you are not finding someone that connects with your teen and keeps you in the loop with care.

Do you ever wake up and feel overwhelmed by the emotions that flood your mind instantly? Do you feel like you don't know how to make sense of these emotions as you go about your day trying to dodge them and stay focused? Or maybe you have anxiety over an important relationship in your life and thoughts that are all consuming so you can't concentrate. We all experience some form of anxiety and depression, but not all of us know how handle these emotions on our own effectively. I can help you scour through these overwhelming emotions and teach you to process them in a healthy manner. During our time together, I will provide a safe environment that supports you with confidence, to take the steps necessary to become a healthier individual. We will work in helping you make sense of what you are feeling, and learn the skills necessary to help you process in a way that is effective for you.
