Pre-Teens /Adolescents

Pre-Teens and Adolescents

​

I find adolescents have a great deal of knowlege and a lot to say... and I want to hear it. Adolescents have been one of my favorite populations to work with since I began my career 18+ years ago.

 

I always start from a strengths based perspective and work hard to create a non-judgemental atmosphere. Flexibility is important with teens and we can have sessions online or in person walking and talking.  I provide support for parents as well, by finding collaborative solutions and ways to interact which work for your family. We can work together to sort out the patterns that are and are not working for you and your child.

 

Some examples of issues I work through with teens on are:

 

• ADHD

• Anxiety 

• Stress Management

• Substance Use / Abuse

• Sexuality

• Depression

• Bullying

• Family relationships

• Social skills

• School anxieties

• Grief / Loss
