Individual Therapy for Teen Girls
Empowering Teen Girls to Navigate Life with Confidence
Understanding the Teen Years
The teenage years are a time of incredible growth, change, and challenge. Today's teen girls are navigating a world of intense academic pressure, complex social dynamics, and the 24/7 influence of social media. It can be overwhelming for them to figure out who they are and where they fit in.
It’s common for teens to feel anxious, misunderstood, lonely, or stressed, but they often struggle to put these feelings into words. You may have noticed your daughter seems more withdrawn, irritable, or anxious. Or perhaps she has told you she’s struggling and needs someone to talk to.
Therapy provides a unique space just for her—one that is separate from school, friends, and even family—where she can be fully, authentically herself without judgment.
Hi, I’m Rachael
My goal is to help your daughter move from feeling overwhelmed to feeling capable. Through our work together, she can gain the self-awareness and practical skills to not only navigate her current challenges but also build a foundation of resilience and confidence that will serve her long into adulthood.
How it works
01 - CONSULTATION
Start by booking a free 15-minute consultation to see if I’d be a good fit for your family.
02 - INTAKE
Next, we’ll schedule our first session. During your intake, I’ll ask about your daughter’s current life, family history, and more.
03 - THERAPY
We’ll schedule weekly or bi-weekly sessions to help your daughter reach her goals, improve relationships, and build her skillsets.
04 - NEXT STEPS
Whether it’s adding Group Therapy, Family Therapy, or graduating from therapy, we’ll decide next steps together.
My approach to working with teens
Feel confident and connected to your daughter again by getting to the emotions underneath the disconnect, not just the moment you're stuck in.
My approach is not about "fixing" your daughter, but about empowering her. We work collaboratively to:
-
Give a name to the complex emotions she’s experiencing.
-
Develop practical, healthy coping strategies for stress, anxiety, and sadness.
-
Gently challenge negative thought patterns and self-criticism.
-
Identify her unique strengths and help her build a stronger sense of self.
-
Practice skills to help her navigate relationships and express her needs effectively.
Empowerment starts here.
If you feel your daughter could benefit from a supportive, dedicated space to grow, I invite you to reach out. Click below to schedule a complimentary phone consultation to learn more about my approach.
