Kids are under enormous pressure at home, in school and with peers. These pressures can present themselves in many ways -- as childhood anxiety, adolescent depression, or school behavioral problems. My focus is on making your child feel heard, while providing them with a tool belt of coping mechanisms that can be accessed whenever they are feeling overwhelmed. Your child will build self-esteem along with practical emotional awareness and regulation skills that can be incorporated into their daily lives.

Life can be painful and complicated at times, and so often we react instead of respond to stress. Whether you are an adult, teen, or child, emotions can be complex to navigate and difficult to manage alone. My goal is to support you through difficult moments, help you build awareness and understanding for your behaviors and feelings, gain clarity in confusing times, better understand your relationships, and ultimately help you see life in clearer terms. As a collaborator on this journey, I aim to provide a nurturing and safe environment so that you may explore your internal nature and grow in all the ways you desire.

Self-betterment is an investment that is aligned with self-love and positive reinforcement.

I have helped children and teens that are struggling with anxiety, anger/self-regulation, self-confidence, social, relationships, and emotional resilience to develop healthier habits.

Life as a neurodivergent and/or disabled person can be beautiful, wonderful, and filled with so much joy! It can also be exhausting, challenging, and involve a lot of misunderstanding from those around you. Many of us experience traumas, anxiety, depression, Autistic burnout, emotion regulation difficulties, relational difficulties, and struggles with work, school, and parenting demands. If you're looking for support in managing any of these areas, and you want to work with someone who knows how to set you up for sustainable change, you're in the right place.

It is a privilege to be a therapist because patients entrust you with closely held and often pained parts of themselves, along with parts of themselves they are excited about and proud of. I see our work as the creation of a place where these different parts of the patient's self can come into the room and be acknowledged and recognized. Therapy is also a place where you, as the patient, can use my listening ear to help you withstand pain and anxiety. Please see my website: zanjacobusinsightpsychotherapy.com

People have an inherent capacity for growth and healing, however, there are times when we may become stuck or stagnant. As a therapist, my role is to facilitate a person’s natural trend toward development, building upon strengths and resolving internal or external obstacles to living a healthy and fulfilling life. In my work, I aim to create a supportive and accepting environment, tailored to the needs of each client. Understanding that the individual is the expert of their experience, I will take my cues from you in terms of how we work through your specific difficulties together.

No longer recognize the child in your home? Do you want your child back? If you want to regain a sense of love, peace, respect and stability within your home, I am here to assist you!

Parents can then struggle to communicate effectively with their youth leading to increased stress and family conflict. Ultimately, both are seeking understanding, stability, and peace.
