Therapy for Children and Adolescents:

My approach when working with children and teens is one of skill development and empowerment. When I work with children, adolescents and families I seek  to empower your child to understand how their brain works, develop strategies and coping skills to manage the daily demands of school, friends and home life. 

My goal is always to help parents increase connection while also building skills for themselves and supporting skill development in their children. Often therapy involves parents and other family members . We will often involve parents to  help them fill the role of coach when dealing with anxiety, to support parenting skills and increase communication.
