Being a young person today is much harder than the world makes it out to be. Managing the transition from adolescence to young adulthood can be quite jarring, particularly during a time where social connection is limited, fear and anxiety are at an all-time high, and coping skills are limited to whatever we can pursue within the constraints of our homes. I’m here to make space for you or your adolescent child to mourn the life we knew before March of 2020. I’m also here to provide tools to cope in the meantime, and a listening ear to sort through all the thoughts and feelings that reared their head when the noise of everyday life went quiet. My approach to treatment is not centered around a diagnosis, it is guided by the individualized needs and experiences of my client. My clients would describe me as responsive, engaged and direct. I bring my authentic self to my work, which often means incorporating a social justice lens, pervasive curiosity, and a sense of humor.
