Therapy For Teens in Santa Barbara, CA
She’s Your Smart, Capable, High-Achieving Daughter - But Lately, She’s Not Herself.
I Help Teen Girls & Young Women (15–22) Quiet the Anxiety, Drop the Pressure, and Feel Like Themselves Again.
Teens are Awesome
I work with teen girls who are dealing with anxiety, pressure, self-doubt, and the constant feeling of needing to be “on” all the time. Many of the teens I see are thoughtful, capable, and hard on themselves, even when they’re doing their best.
Why Teens + Young Women Choose Therapy with Me
This isn’t stare-at-the-floor and nod therapy. It’s real talk, quiet moments, and space to breathe. Whether she’s overwhelmed by school, friendships, or just trying to keep it together, this is a place where she doesn’t have to perform. I’m not here to fix or judge—I’m here to help her sort through it all and feel a little more steady in the middle of the chaos.
I’m so happy you landed here.
Hi, I’m Kelley. I love working with teens.
The teens I work with are often high-achieving, thoughtful, and carrying more than they let on. Maybe your daughter is putting intense pressure on herself at school, having a hard time managing friendships, or feels overwhelmed even by things she used to enjoy.
I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and a mom of two. I’ve spent over ten years working with teens and families—first in residential and outpatient programs, and now in private practice. My approach is direct, warm, and focused on giving your teen the space and tools she needs to feel more confident, capable, and supported.
