Latrice Simmons, ASW

You're worried that your teen has not been themselves since the pandemic.

They tell you no one likes them, and you're concerned they are not fitting in. They spend all their time in their room, and you feel they may be depressed.  More of your conversations end up with your teen becoming upset, maybe there is yelling or tears. Your teens' emotions affect the whole mood in the house.

Things are so different from when you were young, and you think they should have settled into their new routine by now.

They are often overwhelmed and become upset when trying to do everyday tasks? They are hard on themselves and lack confidence that you feel they should have. Thinking about the future brings out their insecurities and stress. Making life decisions leaves them feeling anxious, confused, or even a little lost in the world. When stressed you hear more complaints that they have stomach aches, headaches or they just don’t feel well. You want to see them excited about their future. 

I can work with your teen to increase their self worth, and inner strength by giving them an environment to get to know and understand themselves better. We will discuss coping skills to reduce symptoms of stress and anxiety. Then we will look at their values, and help them use their strengths to reach their goals. I am here to assist them if they get stuck maneuvering this difficult time in their life.
