Child or Adolescent Issues
Kreins Psychological Services
Psychologist, PhD, PsyD
As a psychologist specializing in working with teens, my approach to treatment is rooted in empathy, respect, and understanding of the unique developmental challenges adolescents face. I create a safe and supportive environment where teens feel heard and validated, fostering trust and open communication. Through a combination of evidence-based therapies such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and motivational interviewing, I address a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, peer relationships, identity exploration, and academic stress. I collaborate closely with teens to set achievable goals, develop coping skills, and navigate life transitions effectively. Additionally, I recognize the importance of involving parents or guardians in the therapeutic process to provide support and facilitate positive changes within the family system. My goal is to empower teens to overcome challenges, build resilience, and thrive emotionally and academically during this critical stage of development.
