counseling setting for anxiety therapy and emotional regulation

Emotions have a job to do; what are yours telling you?”

- Kim Zahlaway, LCSW

Feeling stuck?

School feels impossible some days, friendships are confusing, and family arguments can leave everyone drained. Anxiety, ADHD, Depression, or just trying to figure out who you are can make every day feel like a struggle.

Some days it’s hard to start homework, speak up in class, or get your head out of the social media comparison trap.

You’re not lazy or “difficult” or not trying — you’re navigating a lot, and it can feel like what you’re doing isn’t good enough or nobody really gets it.

It doesn’t have to stay like this.

Picture feeling more in control — less stressed, less anxious, and less overwhelmed by school or social pressures.

Arguments at home happen less, and you can actually talk (or text) with friends without second guessing or feeling drained. Social media doesn’t rule your life, sleep feels better, grades reflect your effort and you notice yourself bouncing back from tough days more easily.

Little by little, you feel proud of your choices, more confident in who you are, and excited about your life again.

Why us?

We combine real-world insight with clinical expertise to help adolescents thrive. We meet teens where they are — overwhelmed, frustrated, or unsure — and turn challenges into practical skills using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), executive functioning coaching, emotion regulation strategies, somatic exercises, strengths-focused problem solving, and collaborative goal-setting.

Sessions are supportive, practical, and solution-oriented, so teens leave feeling more confident and parents leave feeling like they know their kids a little better and finally have a roadmap.

Who this type of therapy is for:

Preteens and teens struggling with anxiety, ADHD, or behavioral issues.

→ Adolescents having trouble with friendships, social skills, or peer pressure.

→ Teens feeling unmotivated, overwhelmed, or stuck academically.

→ Adolescents acting out or withdrawing at home or school.

→ Those looking for calmer, more connected days.

Support for your teen, peace of mind for you.
