We assume that childhood is a carefree happy time but for some children and teens, anxiety robs them of this joy. If your child can't sleep alone, is afraid to try new things or can't tolerate mistakes, they may be struggling with anxiety. If your teen avoids social events, struggles to go to school or worries incessantly about other's opinions, their worries may be overwhelming them. Even overachievers who look like they have everything under control may be stressed by their perfectionism or need to please others. Some kids develop rituals in response to obsessions or compulsions. If this sounds like your child, I can help!

Human beings are wired to worry and feel anxiety. It keeps us safe. It is only a problem when it interferes with us doing what we need to do or want to do or takes the pleasure out of what we enjoy. I work with children, teens, parent & adults to teach them new skills so they can have a different relationship with anxiety. If this is your teen, I can help!

I love working with anxious kids because when someone learns to manage their anxiety , they develop increased confidence, demonstrate resiliency and start smiling more. Their relationships improve with peers and parents. They are no longer afraid to learn, grow or try new things. If your child or teen's anxiety is interfering with their life, I can help!

I teach children and teens to understand what anxiety is and how and why it shows up. I teach them skills to cope better with their uncomfortable feelings and their uncertain thoughts. I include parents in my work so that they know how to support and coach their children when anxiety shows up. I use a short term, active cognitive behavioral approach. I make therapy fun! .
