adolescent Counseling

The teenage years are a time when a lot of physical and emotional changes take place. Teens may feel confused or insecure about themselves and how they fit into the world. Teens crave autonomy while also still needing a support system. This can be a challenging balance to achieve in our modern world of parenting. As a counselor, I provide a safe space where adolescents can be themselves and work through their challenges while gaining the confidence and self-awareness needed to thrive.

Education Consulting

Using a holistic approach to college advising, I view clients as a whole person rather than a statistic in the ever-changing admissions process. I educate my clients and their families about admission while presenting academic options that align with their social, intellectual, geographic, and financial goals.

  • Inform parents and students about the college admission process, financial aid, and awards.

  • Guidance and instruction in preparing essays, applications, interviews, and visiting schools

  • Provide personality and career assessments to increase self-awareness and explore careers and majors of interest.

  • Analyzing student's educational background, including GPA, testing, and extracurricular activities

  • Researching colleges of interest and developing a realistic list of schools tailored to the student's unique abilities, talents, interests, and needs

  • Referrals for tutoring or testing services when needed

Young Adult

Young adults commonly experience challenges as they “launch” into adulthood. The independence and freedom craved are now here, yet not without road bumps. Colleges offer support, but resources can be limited to meet their needs. Be it as a counselor or coach; I work with young adults to help them find their footing during these transitional years.
