We work with girls 16 and older, by video, anywhere in Colorado.
If you are a parent reading this, you have probably already watched your daughter carry something she will not set down. If you are the teenager reading this, you get to decide how much you say and when. Neither of you has to have it figured out before the first conversation.
What We Work On
Most of what teenage girls bring us falls into a few areas, though it rarely stays neatly in one.
- Anxiety and Overwhelm
School, friendships, and a future everyone keeps asking about before you have an answer. - Pressure and Perfectionism
The version of achievement where nothing ever counts as enough for long. - Identity and Belonging
Working out who you are underneath what you were told to be. - Neurodivergence
ADHD, autistic, or highly sensitive, and tired of being managed instead of understood. - Difficult Experiences
Something that happened that still has a hold on how you move through the day.
Why Video Works Well for Teenagers
Teenagers are already used to talking on a screen. It does not feel like a compromise to them the way it sometimes does to adults.
It also removes the part many girls dread most. No waiting room, no being walked in by a parent, no classmate's mother recognizing the car in the lot. She takes the session from her own room. In a small Colorado town, that privacy is not a small thing.
Pace and Approach
We do not ask a teenager to produce her story on a schedule. We start with safety and rapport, and we go where she is willing to go. Trust from a sixteen year old is earned, not assigned, and pushing for it early tends to cost more than waiting would have.
The work draws on the same approaches we use with adult clients, adjusted for where she is: nervous system regulation, somatic and mindfulness practices, parts work, and self-compassion. If trauma is part of the picture, we build the ground under it before we go near it.
