About me
From the perspective of an adult, teen problems may appear insignificant since our kids do not need to generate a steady income, pay mortgage or rent, or make decisions about the future of the family. However, our teens struggle with a variety of issues that appear to them to be overwhelming and too hard to resolve.
In working with teens, I have learned that they often struggle with various forms of anxiety related to: performing in public, being put into unfamiliar situations, making important decisions about their education, disappointing their loved ones, to mention just a few situations. Often, these fears take the form of permanent worries and, at times, they manifest as panic attacks. Other issues that our teens often struggle with include: depression, low self-esteem, excessive anger, poor concentration skills, loneliness, addictions and feelings of irrelevancy in today's world.
Together we can establish a WORKING ALLIANCE in order put your child on a new path in life and re-establish a better relationship with you, the parent. During the therapy process, the teen (along with you) will collect tools and coping skills that he or she will use going through life. In the arena of teen counseling, my long-standing areas of expertise include: ADHD (testing, diagnosis, coaching), teenage anxiety and depression, conflicts with parents, improving communication, self-harm, marijuana addiction, and addiction to social media.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Izabela Weber. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Teen Counseling might be different.
Truly invested in the positive outcome of her clients. Genuine, sincere, kindhearted, and professional. Able to have a conversation with ease and provide amazing insight and direction. Irreplaceable!
Izabela is wonderful. She has helped my husband and I improve our communication so that we are able to address the issues we came to address. For me, she strikes a perfect balance of listening and offering advise. She prompts input from both of us but she keeps us on track and has given us some great tools and insight that is applicable to our relationship. She seems to genuinely want to help us as a couple and has the experience to do it. I'm really glad we found her!
My son has had nothing but positive things to say about his sessions. And in the couple sessions we've had to figure out the path forward. Have been smooth and very helpful. I don't have to remind him to schedule the next appointment or remind him when its time for one. His enthusiasm I believe is in large part because of how easy it is to talk to his therapist. As well as starting to see results for the hard work he's been putting in.
I was very skeptical of therapy at first, but Izabela has proven to me that therapy is worth the time and effort. I couldn’t ask for a better therapist!
Izabela is a wonderful caring person and seems to truly listen and understand issues. I truly appreciate her help and guidance.
She gives us the tools we need to resolve problems and think differently about situations. She has helped us a lot and has a great style and approach.
Izabela was so great, she really helped address our needs and is wonderful!
Izabela is amazing. She has helped me so much through so many things. There aren't enough words for how amazing she is.
Izabela is a very good listener, compassionate and offers many tools for managing and improving mental health .
I've been working with Izabela for over a year now, and I've come a long way from when I started. She continues to provide me with helpful tools and resources to help me navigate through many aspects of my life. She is a staple in my family's health.
SHE IS A LIFESAVER! Izabella stands for our marriage. She truly cares for us as individuals and shares so many incredible tools to bring compassion, love and connection into our partnership. She has a huge heart. My husband and i have had our sh*t and laundry on the table and she relays and communicates what's underneath beautifully. She is sad when we are unhappy. She gets lit up when we grow. She doesn't take sides and has even seen us once on her vacation. She is a selfless beautiful soul who researches, reads and always brushes up on techniques and offers the best resources. My husband and I have been seeing her for 37 sessions now and we cannot picture our life without her support.
My child has responded well to Izabela’s style of counseling. She is supportive and able to facilitate conversation between me and my child by the topics she covers in session. I think my child has more hope now and is a little less overwhelmed and doom thinking because she has a counselor like her. We have tried many face to face counselors but this works best due to the appeal it has in technology for millennials. The online flexibility and consistency is great for teens!
Izabela is really wonderful. She's incredibly empathetic, warm and a great listener. She provided practical and easy to use tools to help me move forward, and do things differently for the better.
She's incredibly knowledgeable and seems to stay current in the world of therapy/counseling. She provided some really novel insight for me regarding forgiveness, and gave helpful book recommendations.
She's a fantastic therapist and I would highly recommend her!
Izabela had helped me make HUGE steps in my life. I've gone from being depressed, anxious and very stressed person to being a happy person who knows herself much better and who has tools to manage her stress. I'm very appreciative
After just a few sessions with Izabela, I have learned so much! Her expertise and compassion are exactly what my partner and I needed so that we can communicate more effectively and without arguing. I felt heard, understood and supported right away and the tools she is teaching us are so practical and useful. I have worked with many counselors and therapists over the years; Izabela is one of the most skilled and intuitive counselors I have ever had the privilege to work with. In addition to being very fair and neutral (not taking sides) she has a way of getting right to the heart of the matter and offering suggestions that diffuse the emotional charge around disputes. We are so grateful to have found her!
She has and continues to help me change my life.
I've only been working with Izabela for a short time but she has already proved to be a very supportive counselor for me. I feel better knowing I have her on my side and she gives really great advice. I always feel better after reading her messages.
She's wonderful to talk to and knowledgeable
Isabela is extremely understanding and gentle. She explains everything to me and puts it into a perspective that I have never received in therapy before. She also gives me tools. I love her as my therapist and look forward to my continued healing and growth.
I think Izabela is an amazing therapist. She listens to you and all your concerns. She also
Suggest many things to help you along your way.
Izabel develops her consideration, at least of me, of meeting me where I am at. She is wonderful. While I engage my personal challenges, she develops my balance. What a wonderful person to engage with. What a wonderful person to grow with, Thank you, genuinely and sincerely.

Isabela works really well to adapt to her client's needs. She has adjusted in conversation many times on the fly.
After a bad experience with a different counselor, I found Izabela and everything started to make sense. She understood my problems immediately and has since been giving me a variety of tools to help me tackle my issue. I never want to have therapy with a different counselor ever again!
I appreciate Izabela's help in understanding how to navigate the recent changes in my life. As confused and emotional as I was, she helped me get a clear picture of how to move forward.
Izabela is a fantastic goals oriented counselor. In our first session, we set a list of goals and discussed my primary reason for coming to therapy. In each session, she makes time to address anything that is bothering you or that you need to discuss, and she also always had a list of helpful tools and exercises available.
She's really helped me to be more self confident, more aware, be a better communicator, and to also put myself first sometimes. She has helped me recover from and address trauma and toxic habits I often used to fall back on.
I'm so grateful for my time spent working with Izabela. She's fantastic at what she does and is incredibly kind.
Izabela is a fantastic counselor. She is able to understand my concerns and work with me to provide concrete tools to deal with my anxiety. We have regular phone sessions and she is always able to listen and respond in ways that make me feel heard and appreciate, while injecting a little bit of humor as well. She has given me a plethora of strategies to manage my anxiety and seems to understand that it's more about finding the tools that work best for you.
Throughout my counseling experience, Izabela has been very kind, supportive, and comforting. She helped me develop skills for managing my grief and my anxiety. When she realized the way we were approaching one of my issues wasn't quite helping me, she immediately changed tactics and came up with a new plan which was much better for me! She has been wonderful and I am so appreciative for all her help!
She is amazing!
