In Person (Austin/Round Rock, TX area), Oregon, & Online Serving Texas
I see you. I see your anger, your hurt, and the challenges you're facing in a world that often feels overwhelming. You might wonder if therapy can truly help, and I want to assure you that it can. I want to be your guide on this journey towards healing, understanding, and finding strength within yourself.
If you are ANGRY…
It's okay to be angry because anger is a VALID emotion, and in a world filled with so much change, injustice, and uncertainty, it's natural to feel this way. However, it's also important to acknowledge that anger, when left alone, can consume and exhaust you. Therapy provides a safe space to explore your anger, to understand its roots, and to learn healthier ways to cope with it.
In therapy, you won't be judged for your anger. Instead, we'll work together to channel it into a force for positive change. We'll explore the sources of your anger, whether it's related to personal experiences, societal issues, or a combination of both. By understanding the underlying causes, you can start to reclaim your emotional well-being.
If you are HURTING…
I want you to know that your pain is seen and respected. The hurts you carry are real, and they're not something you need to endure alone. Therapy can help you process your pain, whether it stems from past traumas, difficult life transitions, or ongoing struggles. Together, we'll work to find ways to heal and build resilience.
Can teen therapy/counseling really help?
One of the beautiful aspects of therapy is that it's a judgment-free zone. You can be yourself, share your stories, and express your feelings without the fear of being criticized or invalidated. You can speak openly, without the need to protect those around you, because this is a space that's entirely yours. It's where you're encouraged to be authentic, where your pain and anger can be released and transformed.
Therapy isn't about someone telling you what to do or how to feel. It's a collaborative process where we work together to discover what's best for you. You are the expert on your own life, and I'm here to provide guidance, support, and the tools you need to navigate your journey towards healing.
A crucial part of therapy is helping you develop healthy coping strategies. You'll learn how to manage your emotions and stress in constructive ways. This will empower you to take control of your emotional well-being and equip you with skills that will serve you throughout your life.
Getting the most out of teen therapy/counseling
As a therapist who understands teens and the unique challenges you face, my goal is to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I'll be here to listen, to offer insights, and to help you develop a deeper understanding of yourself.
Remember, it's not a sign of weakness to seek help. In fact, it takes great courage to acknowledge your struggles and seek support. Therapy can be a place where you regain your inner strength, where you find your voice, and where you learn to use it to make the changes you want in your life.
The journey of healing and growth can be challenging, but it's also incredibly rewarding. By investing in yourself and your well-being, you're taking a powerful step toward a brighter and more fulfilling future.
What will teen therapy/counseling be like?
I encourage you to consider therapy as a valuable resource on your path towards healing and self-discovery. If you ever decide to take that step, I'll be here to support you, to help you find your way through the complexities of life, and to celebrate your victories, no matter how small they may seem.
You are not alone in this journey. There's hope, there's help, and there's a future filled with possibilities. I'm here to walk beside you, to listen, and to support you on your unique path to healing.
