Montclair, New Jersey therapist: Inspired Hope, licensed clinical social worker
Child or Adolescent Issues

Inspired Hope

Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
As a high school teacher for over twenty years, a mother of four teens, and an In Home Clinician working with children and adolescents for five years, I like to say that I speak fluent teen. These formative years are met with some many obstacles; mentally, physically, academically, and personally. Navigating one's way during this time can be confusing, and we all know that "parents just don't understand." I start by building rapport and helping your child to acknowledge their struggles and then we work together to find ways to overcome them in a supportive and understanding space.
