Teen and Early Adult Counseling

I specialize in providing individual therapy from early adolescence through late college years focusing on identity formation, individuation and enhancement of life skills. Therapy is often unconventional and does not always have to take place sitting properly on a couch. Instead art, music and boardgames are often utilized as well as real world conversations that are absent of pretension and fluff. The world outside the therapy room is very real and the therapy space is designed to hold everything that comes with that including pain and joy.

Components of CBT and DBT are utilized to increase emotion management as well as Internal Family Systems to improve self soothing and unite the various parts of self to increase sense of wholeness.
