A Note From the L.A. Teen TherapistI feel it is essential to model to our future generations how to live together in peace. Towards this end, I devote my days to teaching parents and teens how to respond to each other in conscious and respectful ways. – Sandra
The reason I offer a FREE Initial Parent Consultation is to confirm that I am a good match for your family. If your family is in crisis, I often suggest we meet once a week with the teen, and once a week with the parents–for about 6 weeks. In this manner, I am can do a thorough assessment of the situation and give you my most helpful recommendations.
During this time, you will get an immediate and direct experience of the value I provide. I try to make the experience uplifting as well as educational. My intention is to guide you in ways you can support your teen, with the focus on solutions that will unite the family, rather than assigning blame. There is an inner experience that is driving your teen’s behavior, and my goal is to help uncover and address it, to thus allow the healing of their pain.
In closing, my world travels, together with my work as a teen therapist, have exposed me to people of many backgrounds. What I have learned from my experiences both abroad and locally, is that each individual carries the desire to feel connected and loved … and we are not different in matters of the heart. Thus, the pervading theme of my work has been encouraging the practice of kindness within your family and community.
I leave you with one of my favorite quotes from Gandhi. “I honor the place within you where the entire Universe resides; where, when you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me, there is only one of us.” Namaste.
