Teens

I work with teens ages 16-19 through a relational-cultural, intersectional feminist, and narrative lens. I will provide your teen with a confidential space to heal and explore. I typically engage teens through talk therapy and creative activities. If your teen has experienced trauma, they may be a good fit for Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). I meet with both parents and teens together for the first session and then meet only with the teen, except for some parent coaching and check-ins as needed.

Your teen may be a good fit for therapy if they are experiencing:

• low self-esteem or self-worth

• anxiety

• stress

• mood swings

• depression

• gender identity exploration

• sexual identity exploration

• trouble with school and social-related issues

• grief

• childhood abuse
