Please Note: I am currently providing ONLY telehealth video therapy sessions via a HIPAA-compliant videoconferencing service to California clients. If interested, please let me know or click here for more information, and I pray you and your family stay safe during these challenging times.
The teen years can be an especially challenging time for both teens and parents alike. Teenagers face a variety of new situations, challenges, responsibilities and pressures, often reacting to them in a not so healthy fashion. Some of the experiences your teen must face are simply a normal part of growing up, and you are witnessing your teen assert themselves in a fight for independence. However, in the fast-paced world we are now living many issues our teens are faced with are far more complicated and, if not dealt with properly can lead to depression, eating disorders, school and peer issues, and addictions to alcohol or drugs.
My role as a professional family counselor is to objectively assess the seriousness of the issues your teen and family are facing, help your teen and you understand each other’s reasons for behaving the way you do, and determine the best course of action to restore open communication, mutual respect and trust to your family.
