Online Therapy for Adults
I help people reconnect to themselves when they feel helpless, overwhelmed, or lost in their relationships—at home or at work. I work with developmental and relational trauma which impacts the way we show up in relation to others, particularly those we have intense attachments (family, partners) to or where power dynamics are at play (like work). In the safety of therapy, you can begin to make sense of your experiences and listen to what your body and emotions are trying to tell you. Over time and with practice, you will learn skills and techniques to become your own safe refuge.
Online Therapy for Teens
I love to work with teens and adolescents, particularly those just beginning to navigate the complex world of high school. (In fact, I spent a year as an on-site therapist in a high school!) From meeting academic expectations to fulfilling extracurricular responsibilities, from navigating the social scene at school to surviving the one online, teens are under a lot of stress even under the best of circumstances. (And often, life doesn’t grant the best of circumstances.)
Sometimes teens come to therapy because their behavior has been flagged as problematic in some way. I honor that, however their behavior is arising, it is happening in a context that is greater than the teen and is both resilient and adaptive in some way. From a place of empathy and understanding, we can partner in developing an awareness of the forces, pressures, and desires underlying those behaviors to build a secure base moving forward.
I take a strengths-based approach with teens to build their confidence now while laying the groundwork for safe, secure relationships in the future. I work at their pace to build trust and honor their innate resilience.
