Adolescent Therapy & Parent Coaching
Fostering Autonomy, Decision-Making, and Family Alignment
The transition through adolescence is a crucial turning point—a time when young people navigate shifting identities, academic or social pressure, and a growing drive for independence. My work with teens and their families is designed to support this developmental step by fostering executive function, emotional regulation, and clear communication.
While I no longer work with young children, I maintain an active practice working with older adolescents, high-achieving students, and young adults, as well as providing targeted coaching for their parents.
A Strategic Approach to Adolescent Growth
Rather than taking a directive or lecturing stance, my work with teens focuses on building internal motivation and decision-making mastery:
Strategic Problem-Solving: I help adolescents examine their choices, evaluate consequences, and develop effective strategies to achieve their personal goals while minimizing negative or self-defeating outcomes.
Emotional & Nervous System Regulation: Teens learn practical tools to manage academic stress, social anxiety, and emotional intensity, helping them shift out of reactive states and into grounded, clear thinking.
Building Self-Efficacy: We focus on developing accountability, self-reflection, and confidence, empowering young people to take ownership of their lives and future direction.
Confidentiality & Family Collaboration
A successful therapeutic relationship with an adolescent requires trust and a genuine sense of privacy.
Protected Confidentiality: In individual therapy with teens, I maintain strict confidentiality regarding our session discussions, barring safety emergencies or risks of harm. This creates a safe space where young people can speak honestly without fear of immediate parental judgment.
Empowering Direct Communication: Rather than acting as a middleman between parents and teens, I coach adolescents to express their thoughts, boundaries, and needs directly to their families.
Integrated Family Sessions: When beneficial, we bring parents and teens together in family sessions to facilitate healthier dialogues, break reactive conflict patterns, and practice new communication tools in real time.
Parent Coaching: Evolving Your Leadership
Parenting a teen requires a shift from childhood management to adolescent mentorship. Through dedicated parent coaching—offered either alongside adolescent care or as a standalone service—I help parents adapt their strategies to match their teen's evolving developmental needs.
We focus on establishing clear, respectful boundaries, reducing household tension, and shifting from power struggles toward a collaborative relationship that prepares your adolescent for a successful, independent adulthood.

Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT, Certified Gottman Therapist
Play is the natural language of children so when they can play with a trained therapist who can do therapy at the same time, it's the best of both worlds. Your child wants to come and they are getting the treatment that they need at the same time.
With teens, it can take time to develop rapport and help them open up. We have an amazing training program for all of the therapists who specialize in working with teens so they can create a safe environment for teens who may be experiencing anxiety, depression, peer relationship struggles and all the life transitions they are going through.

Danielle Greenspan, LMFT, LPCC
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT 104395, LPCC 4889
I have worked with children and adolescents of all ages in different capacities for the past 17 years. I work with children as young as in infancy using my training and certification in FirstPlay Somatic Storytelling. I am trained and certified in Parent-Child Interaction Therapy to build and grow the relationships between parents and their toddlers or young children. I love working with elementary aged children in play therapy using their special interests to build a rapport and get creative with my interventions. I love working with adolescents through the challenges and angst of being so close to adulthood but not yet having the independence they crave.

Sometimes children and families face challenging problems. Maybe it's a separation or divorce of parents, death in the family, or moving. I have worked with children, teens, and families from diverse backgrounds for the last 17 years. Depending on the client, I use play therapy, art, and cognitive-behavioral approaches to help children and teens be successful in managing anxiety, emotional outbursts, anger management, and defiance, as well as trauma experiences.
