Emotional regulation
Learn to manage intense emotions without shutting down or lashing out.
Resilience
Build the ability to bounce back from setbacks at school, with friends, and at home.
Healthy coping strategies
Replace avoidance and reactivity with tools that actually work.
Communication skills
Express needs clearly — with parents, teachers, and peers.
Confidence
Navigate school, friendships, and identity with greater self-assurance.

We had a great first experience with Dr. Ellen. She strikes the perfect balance between being organized and approachable. She addressed all our concerns as parents, but the highlight was how quickly she made our daughter feel comfortable. Navigating an autism evaluation can be stressful, but Dr. Ellen made the process feel manageable and supportive. We highly recommend her.

I think overall it went very well. I think it was the first time my son actually enjoyed a therapy session. I felt Mr. Hernandez did well to build a rapport with him, and my son responded to him well. I’m hopeful that he will see the benefit to therapy and be able to learn some coping mechanisms for when he feels overwhelmed. It was very different, in a good way, from our previous experience with therapy.

Frequently asked questions
If your teen is experiencing persistent sadness, anxiety, withdrawal, irritability, declining grades, or difficulty managing emotions, therapy can help. You don't need a diagnosis to start — early support makes a difference.
Yes. Therapy sessions are confidential. Your teen's therapist will explain the limits of confidentiality at the start. Parents receive general progress updates, but specific session content stays between your teen and their therapist unless safety is a concern.
Therapists share general progress and recommendations with parents, but respect your teen's privacy regarding session content. Exceptions are made only when there are safety concerns. This balance supports trust and therapeutic progress.
It depends on your teen's needs. Some teens benefit from 8–12 sessions; others engage in longer-term support. Your therapist will work with you and your teen to set goals and assess progress along the way.
Yes. Anxiety and depression are among the most common conditions we treat in teens. Our therapists use evidence-based approaches like CBT and DBT, tailored for adolescents.
Yes. We offer both therapy and medication management for ADHD. Teens receive support for executive functioning, focus, time management, and academic strategies — all in one place.
It's common for teens to resist therapy at first. Our therapists are experienced in building rapport with reluctant teens. We also offer parent guidance sessions to help you support your teen through the process.
When appropriate and with your consent, we can coordinate with school counselors and teachers to support your teen's academic and emotional needs.
