Is your teen or student having a tough time? Many young adults struggle with anxiety, indecisiveness, strong emotions, lack of focus, poor relationships, homesickness and unhealthy habits. Often they feel they are not valuable, wanted, or interesting. Parents, you are probably worried if they will make it out of this phase of life ok, or if your college student is going to survive the new pressures. Help is here. I truly enjoy teens and young adults. In therapy my goal is to raise your child up to their full potential. (And if this is the youth reading, welcome! I'm happy to have you here. Please read on!)Through counseling we will seek out your youth's unique strengths and empower them to use these skills to overcome their specific challenges. We will put a spot-light on confusing behaviors, thoughts, and feelings. We will clear them out, make sense of them, or put them into productive action. We will give attention to healing past or current trauma, and gain wisdom from the painful experience. And of course we will set goals for your youth's future that are motivating, unique, and add fulfillment to their life. The skills acquired through counseling is a great investment in your child's future and will serve them for many years to come. Ready to get started?
