About

In 2026, growing up with the added pressures of social media creates unique challenges for teenagers and young adults. Navigating the already complex process of forming an identity, managing peer and romantic relationships, working through conflict, and becoming more independent can be overwhelming. Whether you’re a parent seeking support for your adolescent or a young adult looking for guidance, I’m here to provide a safe, supportive space to explore these challenges. When working with younger clients, I often use games and kid-friendly activities to facilitate conversations in a way that feels natural and engaging. I provide a safe, non-judgmental space to explore life's challenges and an objective perspective to help make sense of the factors influencing thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. When working with adolescents and teenagers, I also prioritize building trust and maintaining open communication with parents as an essential part of the treatment process.
