THERAPIST IN ORANGE COUNTY
Adolescent Therapy
Adolescent years are some of the toughest years to go through. Teens are experiencing so much change; physically, emotionally, and mentally. Not only are they trying to figure out who they are and who they want to be, adolescences are also attempting to navigate social groups. In adolescent therapy, I help teens identify strategies to help regulate emotions and make healthy decisions. I focus on building self esteem and confidence in their strengths and teach them communication skills on how to solve problems.
Parent Counseling
Parenting is really HARD. Are you quietly worried about your teen? Do you feel like you and your teen have a contentious relationship? Is there constant silence between you and your teen? I help parents and teens come together and talk about problems they may be having within the relationship. I offer family therapy and parenting sessions that focus on repairing the relationship between you and your adolescent and as well as helpful strategies you can use to better communicate your concerns.
Young Adult Therapy
Are you having difficulty adjusting to life's challenges? Do you feel anxious about the future and what life will bring? I help young adults discuss life's challenges and any concerns that may be affecting your relationships. Together, I help you feel empowered to make big decisions so you can pursue the things that give you joy and happiness. Also, being a therapist in Orange County, I support you in figuring out your social needs and wants and how to cultivate meaningful relationships.
Anxiety Therapy
Looking for help with Anxiety? All humans experience a degree of anxiety. Sometimes, anxiety can get out of hand, and you may feel: stuck, constantly overwhelmed, excessive self doubt, and demonstrate physical symptoms. I am here to support you feeling more in control and anxious free. I assist individuals in identifying coping skills that specifically work for them.
Grief Counseling
Often people associate grief with
the loss of a loved one, and while this is true, it is not the only form of loss. Grief is a natural reaction to loss. Grieving is normal and healthy however grief may be an experience adolescents and young adults resist or have difficulty understanding how to grief. There is no right or wrong way to grief. I will help you move forward by honoring your own grief journey.
Sport Anxiety Therapy
Do you dread going to practice or games? Are you wondering what happened to your love for playing? Most athletes I work with were already struggling with anxiety and now the anxiety is so overwhelming it's bleeding into sports. Being a therapist in Orange County, I help athletes feel more confident and in control of their anxiety so they can love the game again.
