Together, We Can Help Your Teen Thrive.

Is anxiety and stress causing your teen to feel stuck? Do they overthink, doubt themselves, and get upset easily? It can be heartbreaking to watch your child struggle with school, friendships, and their overall well-being. But, you don't have to do it alone. There is a future where your child feels good! I'm here to help your teen shift their mindset so they can work through their challenging moments with confidence. They'll learn to reframe their unhelpful thoughts and manage their strong emotions so they can get back to being a teen who enjoys life. It’s not your fault they're going through this, but we can do something about it! I specialize in helping teens and pre-teens manage anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, and depression. Parents come to me looking for someone who understands their child’s experience and can help them grow. Sessions with me are a safe place to share hopes, worries, and doubts while practicing self-compassion and making positive changes. Together, we can help your child thrive. As an experienced School Counselor and Professional Counselor, I’ll meet your teen where they are on their unique journey and go at their own pace. A life where your teen worries less and smiles more is possible. Call or email me today for a free 15-minute video consult. I can’t wait to hear from you! Learn more at: www.guidingsteptherapy.com
