First steps are always hard.

Here’s How I Support You

 
 

There is absolutely no shame in reaching out for help with parenting or relationship problems. In fact, this very act of reaching out demonstrates a belief in yourself and your potential to heal and grow that is a sign of your resilience.

Our time together is very specific to your situation. However, here are some of the common goals that come out of my sessions with teenagers, young adults and their parents:

 

>>Exit off the roundabout

Sometimes we get on cycles in our relationships that lead to conflict or disconnection. When we can see the cycle we are in more clearly, we are able to seek solutions to end the constant struggle.

>>Reach your full potential

You have gifts, talents, and passions to share with others. When we are feeling stuck, or anxious, or depressed, we can lose sight of all the possibilities. Our time together can eventually lead to a way for you to carry forward on your path to realizing your full potential.

>>Connect in your relationships

So much of our happiness depends on the quality of our relationships. While so much of our pain and hurt can stem from the disconnect in relationships, when we are alone, it can be even harder to overcome the hurt we feel. Our time together will help you discover ways to enrich your relationships, so that we can heal from our deepest pain. Let’s talk about your social connections, and look at ways to find a sense of belonging. When we can connect, we can overcome so much of the pain and hurt we feel as teenagers, young adults, and parents alike.

>>Embodiment practice

One of the ways we can help heal our thoughts and hurt feelings is by using mindfulness techniques that integrate the body and breath. If you’re interested, we can work through ways to use meditation, breath work, and other embodiment practices to practice outside of our talk therapy sessions.
