Adolescents

Individual Therapy

  • When counseling adolescent clients I typically assist them with improving their sense of self, and with setting and achieving goals for school, family and their social lives.

Family Therapy

  • When counseling families I emphasize strengthening their connections with one another, improving communication and resolving conflict. 
  • I also assist parents in setting developmentally appropriate boundaries and limits with their teens.
  • I emphasize the need to be actively involed as a parent in ways that are most hopeful to young people who are finding their own way in the world.
