Is your teenager dealing with intense emotions like anxiety, anger or sadness? Are you tired of frequent family arguments? Is your family going through stressfull changes like divorce or loss of a loved one? When children don't have a way to process their internal struggles they often act out or withdraw. Teenagers see the world in a different way and face different struggles than adults. I am a licensed clinical social worker and specialize in working with teenagers and their families. I tailor sessions to address my clients' specific needs and to achieve their goals.
I also specialize in working with couples. Whether there are concerns in the relationship surrounding communication or trust, I help couples work together to increase their happiness. I encourage and challenge individuals to be active participants in couples therapy and to find ways to better themselves and their relationships.
With 15 years of experience, I have worked and helped teenagers and families that face many challenges in their daily lives. I also provide E-therapy for individuals who prefer to communicate via video-chat or those unable to make it in to my office.
