First of all, thanks for checking out my site.
If you're reading this right now, you're probably going through a hard time. I think it is awesome that you are here...it shows that you WANT to get better. You may be having a hard time at school or at home. Maybe you're having trouble with your friends, parents, family members or teachers. Whatever it is, it sounds like you could benefit from talking about your feelings.
THERAPY MAY BE IMPORTANT FOR YOU RIGHT NOW!
You may want to talk to your parent(s) about your struggles and suggest that you think therapy would be helpful. That may cause you a lot of anxiety but I commend you on your courageousness!
Therapy is a safe time and place to talk about everything that is affecting your life. It is a great opportunity to talk about times when you feel embarrassed, ashamed, angry, depressed, anxious or fearful. Therapy helps people feel more connected to themselves and others.
There is no judgment. There is no shaming you for what you think and feel. There is no agenda. This is all about you and directed by you. There is only empathy and compassion; and I believe that is exactly what is needed to heal.
Therapy sessions are about an hour long and are guided by you. I will have some feedback for you from time to time. While I'm not there to give advice, I can help you discover truths about yourself that maybe you were never aware of.
I have a lot of experience helping teenagers with school issues like grades and improving interactions with teachers, classmates, and friends. I love helping teens and their families understand each other better and learn how to better handle conflict with everyone in their lives. I can also help teens learn how to express themselves in a healthier, more effective way.
Your confidentiality is incredibly important to me. If you don't trust me, therapy will never work...and I WANT it to work for you. Since my goal is to help improve your mental health and the factors that play a role in it, having your parents involved may be important. If I think they would benefit from knowing what we talk about, you and I will work together to be able to let them know
There are times that I am legally required to report what we have talked about. Those instances include the following:
***I may have to disclose what you talk about with law enforcement officials or Child Protective Services. If I must disclose what you say, I will try to work with you to understand why and what might happen.***
What if there is something that I think your parents need to know that you’re afraid to talk to them about? You and I can talk about that and figure out what to do and how to handle it. Maybe I can help you find the words, maybe you and I can talk with them together, maybe we develop another better plan. My hope is that we can figure things out together.
Which include a willingness to:
