I offer counseling, with an emphasis of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, to Children and Adolescents who may be struggling with Low Self-Esteem, Poor Body Image, Bullying, Anxiety, Separation Anxiety, Trauma, Depression, Anger Management, Healthy Coping Skills, Family Conflicts, Divorce, Grief, Adolescent Issues, Repercussions from Social Media and Poor Impulse Control. 

 

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a psychotherapy that combines cognitive therapy and behavior therapy by identifying faulty or maladaptive patterns in thinking and behavior and replacing them with healthy, more desirable thinking and behavior.  CBT is an approach that has ample scientific evidence that the interventions and methods actually produce change.

 

Having worked with Children and Adolescents for over 20 years in a clinical setting, I have adopted an approach that is non-threatening and promotes the expression of feelings, and learning through different mediums including Journaling, Play Therapy, Art Therapy, Therapeutic Games, and Therapeutic Storytelling that help to create a space where the Child/Adolescent will feel more comfortable being their authentic self as they navigate through their feelings.   

 

If you feel that your child would benefit from my services, please call today.  I am here to help.
