Who we serve
Adolescent Therapy for Ages 10-17
Background: I've dedicated years to working with adolescents, gaining valuable experience and insight into the unique challenges they face.
Ethical Commitment: I take ethical and legal considerations seriously. I am committed to upholding the highest ethical standards and ensuring the confidentiality and safety of each of my adolescent clients. I understand the importance of creating a safe and supportive space where adolescents feel comfortable expressing themselves.
Child-Centered Approach: I believe in the power of a child-centered approach, where the needs and individuality of each adolescent are honored and respected. My approach is all about creating a nurturing environment where adolescents feel seen, heard, and valued.
Collaborative Process: I understand that involving parents or guardians in the therapeutic journey is crucial. I prioritize open communication and collaboration, ensuring that everyone involved feels informed and supported throughout the process while maintaining your child's confidentiality.
Creative and Expressive Techniques: I integrate creative and expressive modalities, with therapeutic techniques such as art and play, to engage adolescents in the therapeutic process. These techniques provide a natural and comfortable way for adolescents to express themselves and explore their emotions.
By choosing this practice, you're not just choosing a therapist – you're choosing a dedicated ally in your adolescent's journey to emotional well-being. I am here to provide the compassionate and effective support that your adolescent deserves.
