I have over a decade of experience working with adolescents as both a youth minister and as a professional counselor. I have helped young clients struggling with a variety of issues, such as anxiety, depression, self-harm, body image issues, and coping with major life events.

When working with clients who are minors, I use my professional judgment to determine what information will remain confidential between the youth and myself and what information is appropriate to be shared with parents/guardians, concerning treatment issues.

However, parents/guardians do have the right to general information, including how therapy is going and dates of service, as they need to be able to make well-informed decisions about therapy.
