Teens struggle with many issues that are unique to their development and age, but also with issues unique to the times. 

I work with teens on many different types of struggles and challenges they may be experiencing at school, with peers, in relationships, or at home with their families, including:

Low Self-Esteem and/or Self-Confidence.
Anxiety and/or Social Anxiety
Eating Disorders and/or Negative Body Image
Substance Use Problems
Cultural Identity (race, gender, sexuality, etc.)

I understand the intricacies involved in creating a trusting relationship in addition to possessing the patience required to work with teens, and I have been working with teens in some capacity for 20+ years.

*** I currently only have availability during traditional school hours (8am-1:30pm). Those who work with me will often miss their first period, use a study period, or leave school early in order to make their appointments with me. ***

 I request ongoing parent/guardian participation in services when working with adolescents.
