Therapy for Children & Adolescents
Some challenges I have experience in helping with include:
Helping kids and youth heal from trauma due to sexual, physical, and emotional abuse as well as from immigration, racial, or other identity-based traumas
Providing support around grief and loss in its various forms
Developing skills to cope with anxiety, depression, body image, stress, and self-esteem issues
Building connection and understanding in multi-cultural families
Increasing safety and support for immigrant, LGBTQIA, & BIPOC youth
It isn't easy being a child or a teen! Mental health therapy can be an important support for kids who have been dealt a challenging hand at an early age. Addressing emotional and behavioral difficulties while you or your loved one is young will help set them on a path of flourishing in the future.
I am trained in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT), Trauma-Focused Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Attachment, Regulation, & Competency Framework (ARC), Trauma & Grief Component Therapy (TGCT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT for Adolescents)*, and Motivational Interviewing (MI).
*I do not currently provide full model DBT, but provide DBT-informed treatment
