What Therapy with me looks like
My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in your teen’s strengths. I take time to build trust and understand what matters to them, allowing room for conversation, creativity, and practical skill-building.
I draw from approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy skills to help teens understand patterns, manage strong emotions, and communicate their needs. Together, we set goals that feel meaningful to them.
