Why early intervention matters

We take early signs seriously

Adolescent mental health is in crisis nationally. The data on rising depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and suicidality in teens — especially girls — is real, and it has shaped how we work.

We assess risk explicitly, we document safety plans in writing, we talk to parents when it's warranted, and we never treat "it's just a phase" as a clinical answer. Early intervention is one of the most important things a family can do.

Working with the whole household

Parent coaching alongside the child's therapy

Therapy with a child or teen only goes as far as the household can carry it. That's why almost every case includes parallel parent coaching — separate sessions where parents have a place to think, process, and learn the approaches that actually shift behavior at home.

What we offer

How we work

The Collaborative Model

Children don't arrive in isolation — they arrive surrounded by parents, teachers, pediatricians, IEPs, coaches, and the texture of daily home life. Our model assumes all of that context from the start.

With a parent's consent, we coordinate with schools, prescribers, and outside specialists so we're not the only ones holding pieces of the picture. Inside the practice, we move fluidly between individual sessions, parent coaching, sibling sessions when relevant, and — for children who don't yet have the words — art and play therapy.

We explain what we're seeing in plain language, share our thinking with parents directly, and treat every family the way we'd want our own to be treated.

Workshops & Groups

Short-format and group options

Workshops, retreats, and structured groups — focused, time-limited, peer-supported. A different shape than weekly one-on-one therapy.

Family-Based Treatment (FBT) for Adolescents

Evidence-based treatment for adolescent eating disorders that puts parents in the driver's seat of recovery. A structured, three-phase approach with the full PPG team behind you.
