Under the best circumstances, being an adolescent or teen can be hard! Naturally it’s a time of conflict; increased responsibilities, peer pressure, and hormones providing just a few of challenges faced. When combined with breakdowns in the family support system, opportunities for depression, anxiety and lack of motivation can arise. I work with families to shed light on the distorted thought patterns within the home responsible for maintaining such emotional distress, and challenge them to discover their “self” by approaching their lives with more clarity and intent. Educated formally ay Regis U as a MFT, warmth, compassion, respect, and humor are the hallmarks of my practice.
