Therapy for Adolescents & Adults

Welcome and thank you for visiting. You may be here because you're feeling worried, stuck or alone. You may be at the end of your rope and know something needs to change. I can help. My education and experience are in working with teenagers and adults (ages 13 and up) who are struggling with symptoms stemming from anxiety, depression, ADHD, relationship challenges, grief and loss, trauma, and other challenging issues. I encourage you to call or email to set up a free 15 minute phone consultation to see if I am a good fit for your needs.
My approach to therapy is down-to-earth and compassionate. My goal is to empower my clients to learn and practice healthier coping skills while we also work to get to the root of the problem so we can solve it together. Clients begin to notice and better understand the thoughts, emotions, and beliefs surrounding a problem. Once this occurs, space is opened up and clients are able to live a more intentional life free from emotional hijacking.
To help clients heal from and decrease symptoms related to traumatic memories, performance anxiety, phobias, loss, and other challenging problems, I offer Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). ART is an efficient and evidence based eye-movement therapy protocol developed to help clients quickly find lasting relief, peace of mind, and the momentum to move forward - often in as few as 1-3 sessions.
As a mother of three children in a blended family, I can relate to the changes in physical, emotional, and social development that occur in adolescence. I can also relate to the anxiety, depression, and unhealthy coping skills these changes can set in motion. If not addressed, these patterns tend to follow us into adulthood and repeat over time. We often repeat what we don't repair.
My real world experience combined with trauma focused training and degrees in psychology and mental health counseling allow me to offer clients a unique perspective, skill set, and understanding of the many challenging issues that face today's adolescents and adults.
I would love to get to know you and would be honored to walk with you through the oftentimes messy journey toward healing.
To see if I may be a good fit for your needs, please call Becca Taft Counseling Services at 407-257-4491 or email becca@parksideteentherapy.com to set up a free 15 minute phone consultation.

My Approach
More than anything else, I believe that people are resilient. I also believe that you are the expert on your life and that sometimes life can just get too overwhelming to handle alone. By being genuine, curious, open, accepting, and culturally humble, I meet my clients where they are and help them get where they want to go.
While it can be very difficult to notice sometimes, most adolescents and young adults desire to achieve independence while still remaining close to family. Therapy may be a good option for those coping with shifting family dynamics or when an issue arises that affects familial relations.
Sometimes people find the support of a therapist to be helpful during the transition from adolescence into adulthood, especially if they experience mental health concerns or other difficulties as they become accustomed to new expectations, roles, and responsibilities.
My approach to therapy is practical, compassionate, down to earth, and strengths-based. I work collaboratively with clients on their desired goals while simultaneously helping to rebuild connection and trust within relationships.
I encourage my clients to learn more about themselves and their worldview. My therapy approach helps clients get to the root of what is causing their symptoms and affecting their functioning. I help clients see the many aspects that have informed and influenced their presenting problem.
Depending on your needs and goals, my practice is informed by the following evidence based treatment approaches:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
- Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART)
- Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)
