Specialized Support for Teens & Their Families
Navigating the complexities of adolescence with expert, compassionate guidance.
Adolescence can be a tumultuous time. When your teen is struggling with intense emotions, self-harm, suicidality, or conditions like BPD or autism, it can feel overwhelming for the entire family. You are not alone, and your teen doesn't have to navigate this crisis without expert support.
I specialize in working with high-risk teens and their families, providing evidence-based therapy to foster stability, safety, and communication.
A Focus on Skills and Safety
My work with teens and families is active and collaborative. We will focus on:
Building Skills: Using modalities like DBT, we equip teens with concrete skills to manage overwhelming emotions and tolerate distress.
Creating a Safer Environment: Developing safety plans and strategies to reduce self-harm and suicidal behaviors.
Improving Family Dynamics: Helping families learn to validate one another, communicate more effectively, and solve problems collaboratively.
Supporting Parents: Providing you with the tools and understanding you need to effectively support your teen through their recovery.
