Having difficulty communicating with your teen? Are they irritable and disrespectful? Isolating themselves from friends and family? Uninterested in most things, especially activities they once enjoyed? Your teen maybe be suffering from depression, which is concerning and heartbreaking, but there is hope.

Therapy is effective at treating common signs of depression such as sadness, hopelessness, poor school performance, anger, tearfulness, self-harm, and changes in sleep or eating habits. Providing teens a safe space to discuss their thoughts and feelings, learn problem-solving skills, and rebuild their self-esteem are all reasonable and attainable objectives for therapy.

Connecting with teens to help them feel less alone and more supported during this dark and troubling time is my passion. Through my genuine and non-judgmental approach, teens find it easy to trust and confide in me as they begin to heal and eventually learn how to thrive.

Taking the first step towards treatment is often scary and dismissed by teens who fear they will be judged or misunderstood. To help encourage your teen's participation in treatment, I provide a free 15-minute phone consultation that helps ease their concerns, allows them the opportunity to ask me any questions, and learn how therapy can help.
