Children, Adolescents, Parents
Life can be so amazing but at times it can feel really hard too. That increases ten-fold when we are also worried about our little ones. Kids can have some really big feelings and sometimes they are more than we know how to handle. School phobia, difficulty getting along with peers or making friends, angry outbursts, and so many other things our children are dealing with can be hard to navigate. Are you getting called by school often? Have a child who just can’t sleep at night, has no friends and/or can’t communicate? COVID certainly didn’t help teach our kids how to socialize. Is your teen feeling anxious or down? Are they struggling in their friend groups and weighed down by all the stressors around them? Do you feel helpless? Do you feel like you just don’t know where to turn to help them? Is this affecting your family, your marriage? I can help, give me a call.
Stress, Anxiety, Depression
Sometimes we just feel overwhelmed. Sometimes the simplest task feels like too much. Perhaps you can’t seem to fit everything in, you just don’t’ seem to enjoy things like you used to or you overthink everything! It can be hard to look forward to tomorrow when today seems so difficult. Let’s sit down and make this easier for you. Together we can calm the storm, organize those thoughts, find the peace and get you on your way to a brighter tomorrow.
About Michelle
I have a Masters in Social Work from Columbia University. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in both New York and New Jersey with over 25 years of experience working with children, adolescents, their parents, individuals and couples. I have worked in and directed partial hospitalization programs, residential treatment centers, school youth programs and clinics. I have run social skills, anger management, empowerment and peer groups and have helped parents, grandparents, foster parents, and guardians to find better solutions.
When I’m not in the office I enjoy being a Girl Scout Leader, Girl Scout Service Unit Manager, serving on the PTA Board, working as a Youth Group Coordinator and love to travel and find new adventures all of the time with my own kids.
I work from a strength-based perspective and incorporate play, art, cognitive behavioral and family therapy modalities into my practice. I would love to help. Let’s get together and make more of those positive moments occur so you and your family can experience how amazing life can be.
