Therapy can provide the opportunity to express and process emotions in order to understand the root of a problem as well as create the possibility for lasting positive change. Therapy can also be a safe place where not only can you learn about who you are, you can come to understand what you want for your life. Therapy can help you make sense out of the loss and past traumas as well as a place to give voice and understand better our story and the meaning we make from that story we want to tell to others about our life and who we are.

Let’s face it – many children and teenagers don’t like therapy or counseling. It’s boring. It’s uncomfortable. They’re not sure how it’s supposed to work. I approach kids differently than most therapists do. I don’t bombard them with a lot of questions and I don’t try to “get” them to talk with me—an undertaking I find as insulting to us both as it is unproductive. Instead, I introduce a variety of topics and see which ones evolve into conversations that can heal, animate, encourage, stimulate, or inspire. I answer questions, offer opinions, and say what I think is going on without ever trying to muscle any points across. I work quickly, but never rush.
