 Anxiety.  Self-Harm. Suicide. Trauma.

You don’t know what to do about your teen’s anxiety anymore. 

Your teen’s anxiety has taken over every aspect of their life. They’re overwhelmed with stomachaches, headaches, tightness that floods their body, and tension in their chest. 

They have endless thoughts that preoccupy their mind making it hard for them to focus and concentrate on activities or projects. They worry about almost everything and experience constant fear and worry. 

Academically, they have fallen behind. Socially, they have isolated from their friends. And emotionally, your teen is irritable and restless.

Medical reasons have been ruled out and breathing exercises don’t seem to work.

You don’t have to wait until the next panic attack.

Anxiety treatment can help your teen cope.

Simply put, anxiety is energy in the body which is why I like to think of anxiety like waves in the ocean.

Some waves are small, others are big, and sometimes we underestimate the size of the wave and it knocks us off our feet. Often, we see the wave as way bigger than it really is. And then there are those times when the wave is unforeseeable. 

Every wave doesn’t have to feel like a tsunami. Waves come and go, and anxiety can too.

In my experience, once teens understand the size of the wave they’re working with, they’re better equipped to move with the energy in their body, not against it. 

Wouldn’t it be a relief to see your teen conquer their anxiety using effective coping skills? Or managing their anxiety and letting go of unnecessary stresses? 

I can help your teen tackle their anxiety one wave at a time. 

I know you’re worried about your teen’s mental health and I know you’re desperate to find the best help.

Anxiety looks different for every teen, but the first steps are always the same; Welcome the anxiety, acknowledge the anxiety, and invite the anxiety in. 

I know this sounds counterproductive to what seems best for your teen and somewhat scary, but helping teens learn how their anxiety affects their mind and body is important. This way, anxiety doesn’t have the same power to control their every move or decision. 

I specialize in helping teens find the confidence to challenge their anxiety by trusting that they already have the internal resources and power to what their anxiety can no longer say, do, or control. I personalize every teen’s toolbox with a variety of coping skills so that your teen has more than just breathing exercises to work with.

Whether your teen has general anxiety, social anxiety, separation anxiety, or panic attacks, I’m here to help.

My approach to treating anxiety combines traditional forms of therapy including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), with yoga-based practices and other body-focused methods that allow your teen to better understand the physiological responses in their body.

Your teen will leave therapy with a strong foundation of how to ride each passing wave of anxiety using effective tools to combat those consistent and nagging thoughts, help alleviate anxiety both in the moment and long-term, and adapt these coping skills to different environments including home and school.

Let’s work together to help your teen regain their sense of confidence.
