I’m Phil Hartwick, MA, LPC, NCC. My approach is warm and practical—teens leave sessions with tools they can actually use between appointments.

How long does adolescent counseling usually take?

Every teen is unique. Some benefit from short-term support, while others may need longer-term counseling. Together, we’ll create a plan that best fits your teen’s needs.

What issues do you work with most often?

I specialize in supporting teens through anxiety, depression, peer and family relationships, substance use, academic struggles, and navigating life transitions.

How do you help teens feel comfortable opening up?

I create a safe, nonjudgmental space where teens can be themselves. I use humor, empathy, and relatable conversation to build trust and help them feel at ease.

Will parents be involved in the counseling process?

Yes, parent involvement is important. While sessions are focused on the teen, I may check in with parents to provide updates and share strategies to support your teen at home.

How do I know if my teen could benefit from counseling?

If your teen is struggling with anxiety, depression, friendships, school stress, or major changes in life, counseling can provide support, healthier coping tools, and a safe space to talk openly.
