Individual Therapy for Children, Teens and Adults

I provide individual therapy to children, teens and adults for anxiety, depression and behavior concerns. The treatment that I provide is catered to the individual and their specific symptoms and hopes for treatment.

Children

I work individually with children 7 and older. Of course, with treatment for children, parent involvement is a big part of the success. I will work with both you and your child on developing the best treatment plan. Part of all treatment with children is coaching parents on how to support their child in using their new strategies at home. When working with children, I use a lot of hands-on activities, visuals and metaphors to help make the treatment as fun and logical as possible. While therapy is hard work, finding ways to make it fun for children is a crucial part of moving towards goals.

 

Some of the specific problems that I provide treatment for are:

  • Generalized Anxiety
  • Social Anxiety
  • Obsessive Compulsive behaviors
  • Panic Attacks
  • Phobias or Fears
  • Anxiety about separating from caregivers
  • Anxiety related to school or work
  • Skin Picking
  • Hair pulling
  • Avoidance
  • Self-Esteem
  • Behavior Problems
  • Temper Tantrums
  • Depressed Moods
