Mental Health Treatment for Teens
INITIAL CONSULTATION
INTERVIEW
Once you decide you want to try therapy, I will meet with the teen one-on-one to discuss what is currently happening in their life and what they would like to see change. This is a key step for us to work together to plan what treatment will look like. This appointment is about one hour and takes place on a video call. Teens may also receive some surveys to fill out before or after the session.
INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
FOR EATING DISORDERS
I provide cognitive-behavioral and behavioral therapies for eating disorders such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge-eating disorder, as well as body image concerns. I only provide outpatient therapy. If you require inpatient care or intensive outpatient therapy because of safety, there are programs locally and around the country that can better fit your needs.
INDIVIDUAL THERAPY FOR MOOD (ANXIETY AND DEPRESSION)
I provide treatment for depression, anxiety, and other dysregulated emotions. There are several different approaches within cognitive-behavioral therapy that we could take depending on your specific needs. If you are in crisis -- thinking of harming or killing yourself -- I urge you to address the crisis by going to an emergency room or calling a crisis line. In crisis, your needs may be better met by an inpatient or partial hospitalization program.
