Depression & Mood Disorders
When your child seems distant, unmotivated, or unlike themselves, it’s hard not to worry. I help teens and young adults move through depression with support, clarity, and renewed purpose.

What they’re going through
Depression can be hard to recognize—especially when it shows up as irritability, withdrawal, or burnout. Your child may feel numb, hopeless, or like nothing matters anymore, even if they can’t explain why.
Behind the silence or sadness, there’s often a deep longing for connection, meaning, and relief.
How I help with depression & mood disorders
I provide holistic psychiatric care that helps young people name what they’re feeling and begin to move forward.
Whether your child is facing major depression, mood swings, or emotional flatness, we’ll work together to restore balance and hope. My approach blends thoughtful therapy, lifestyle strategies, and medication when needed—always grounded in compassion and collaboration.
With the right support, your child can feel like themselves again—and see a path ahead that feels possible.
What to expect in our sessions
Our virtual sessions are designed to meet your child with both structure and flexibility.
I use evidence-based approaches like CBT, ACT, and strength-based therapy, combined with lifestyle and relational insights to address what’s getting in the way. We’ll talk about patterns, emotions, energy, sleep, and social dynamics—always at a pace that feels safe.
If medication is helpful, I’ll explain options clearly and involve you every step of the way.
Who I work with
I support teens and young adults who feel stuck in sadness, burned out by pressure, or weighed down by emotional ups and downs. Many are high-achieving or deeply thoughtful individuals who feel disconnected from the joy and drive they used to have.
If your child has lost their spark, I’m here to help them find it again—with care that respects both their struggle and their strength.
