Who I Work With
Support for Every Stage of Growth
Children
Online therapy for children ages 9 and up
Children often express their feelings through play rather than words, which is why play therapy can be so effective. Dr. Nabel offers online therapy for children that gives kids a safe place to express themselves, understand their emotions, and build healthy coping skills. Parents and caregivers are an important part of the process and are included through regular consultations.
Adolescents
Online teen therapy for anxiety, identity, and change
The teenage years bring unique emotional and social challenges. As an adolescent therapist, Dr. Nabel helps teens work through anxiety, identity, friendships, relationships, academic pressure, and life transitions. Online sessions often feel more comfortable for teens, making it easier to open up and stay engaged.
Young Adults
Young adult therapy for transition and personal growth
Young adulthood can bring uncertainty, big decisions, and new responsibilities, from starting a career to building independence and relationships. Young adult therapy with Dr. Nabel offers clarity, self-awareness, and support as you build confidence for the future.
Oceanic Mind believes that effective therapy begins with a strong therapeutic relationship built on trust, understanding, and collaboration.
