Finding their best possible path...

As a parent or a caregiver of a teen, you do your best to prepare them for a happy, healthy and successful future.

But things don’t always remain steady. 

Life happens, and challenges come whether it’s switching schools, going through a divorce, learning to co-parenting and simply coming of age. 

How can you tell whether your teen may need help?

  • Has your teen’s self esteem just seemed to plummet
  • Are they spending time with friends who are going down a wrong path?
  • Has their motivation in books and learning and sports fallen off?
  • They spend all their time in front of a screen instead of engaging with others?

Sometimes it feels like you can barely talk to them anymore, they just seem to shut down with one answer responses. 

Watching your teen struggle is painful and frustrating. You’ve likely done all that you can and aren’t quite sure what steps to take next.

It’s time for change

Counseling can help your teen have a safe space to talk to someone openly, and learn the emotional skills so they can thrive in life.

I can help your teen or adolescent to:

  • Self regulate their emotions through bullying, tough online learning challenges, body image issues, friendship problems, dating,  and family conflicts. 
  • Identify faulty beliefs and learn how to become more independent and positive-minded.
  • Increase their self-esteem to make healthy friends, feel good about themselves and strive for goals and leadership roles!

Looking to the future..

I know this period can be difficult, but it can be a stepping stone for something greater.

My aim isn’t just to help return to how things were before, but to help your teen truly succeed.

Teens enjoying working with me because they genuinely have fun while improving themselves, and that creates a better relationship with their parents. Being able to enjoy these years instead of dreading them. 

If you’re ready to feel confident and at ease with your family again, then I'm here to help. 

Get in touch below for a free 15 minute consultation where I can discuss your unique concerns and put together a plan to get things back on track.

Rates & FAQ

How much do you charge per session?

I charge $130 per session for individuals, and $150 for couples or family sessions.

Do you accept insurance?

I do accept insurance, but I am considered an out-of-network provider. This means that if your insurance plan includes out-of-network benefits, you may be able to use your insurance to cover part of the cost of our sessions. I am partnered with Mentaya, an innovative platform that automates claim submissions to your insurer for each therapy session.

Mentaya allows you to only pay your co-insurance or deductible upfront, with Mentaya covering the remaining fee until insurance reimbursement arrives. Mentaya automatically submits claims, tracks progress, and directly deposits any reimbursements to your bank account, removing the need for paperwork and waiting periods.

If you would like to check whether your insurance plan has Out-Of-Network benefits, then please reach out to me here. Mentaya's platform allows us to easily check whether your insurance has benefits and how much your reimbursement may be. I am here to guide you through understanding and accessing your out-of-network benefits.

What does therapy do?

Therapy provides a place where you will have a professional trained in helping you identify and achieve your goals. Therapy is a scientific, evidence-based treatment that provides ways to improve your quality of life and relationships.

Do you offer online counseling?

We do offer online counseling and utilize a telehealth platform through our client portal, Simple Practice.

Tell me something fun about you?

I absolutely love manatees. They have such a serene persona and love to interact with humans. I make a commitment to swim with them at least once a year.
