TEENS &/OR FAMILIES

Are you concerned that your teen is struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, or unsafe behaviors, including excessive internet or cell phone use, and harmful self-image from social media?​

Yet do you feel like every conversation with them results in conflict, withdrawal, or a dead-end?

The adolescent brain is changing every day. While your teen’s intellectual knowledge is expanding, it might be taking time for their emotional skills to catch up. As a result, your teen may experience their feelings intensely and struggle to manage their stress. With tension building, you may have noticed excessive arguments, avoidance, and maybe even self-harm. Instead of engaging in the activities and relationships that used to enrich your teen’s life, lately, they’ve turned away from them.

Teen and/or Family Therapy

It’s hard to be around a teen who is often grumpy and insists on being left alone, but this is when they need the support of an adult the most. Working with a therapist, your teen can balance their budding independence with newfound skills for emotional awareness and stress management. Through the guidance and individualized support I offer at My Healing Haven, you’ll be able to reconnect with your teen, by providing them with support and structure so they aren’t alone.

Many teens choose not to disclose their true feelings out of concern that they will upset their parent(s) or be judged. However, a therapist offers trained, unbiased perspectives on a wide range of issues affecting teens. Therapy is a safe space to process distressing events, difficult emotions, and unhealthy behaviors.


I am passionate about working with teens from all backgrounds, including those who identify as LGBTQ, neurodiverse, or otherwise marginalized. Using a combination of evidence-based and person-centered therapies, I offer my teen clients individualized treatment planning to improve coping and stress management skills.
