Pre-Teen (10-12 y/o) & Teen Therapy (13-18 y/o)
Counseling for teens is designed to help young individuals navigate the challenges of growing up, including academic pressures, social dynamics, and emotional well-being. If your child is struggling at home, in school, or in social settings, therapy provides a supportive space to explore their feelings, develop coping strategies, and build resilience.
Common concerns and diagnoses that can be effectively addressed in therapy include:
• Anxiety disorders (such as generalized anxiety, social anxiety, or panic disorder)
• Depression and mood disorders
• ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder)
• Adjustment disorders
• Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD)
• Trauma and PTSD
• Grief and loss
• Low self-esteem and identity concerns
Using a strengths-based approach, therapy focuses on:
• Enhancing emotional intelligence and self-awareness
• Improving communication and problem-solving skills
• Managing stress, anxiety, and mood changes
• Strengthening self-esteem and confidence
• Supporting healthy relationships with peers and family
Together, we will identify the underlying causes of your child’s emotional struggles and create a personalized plan to help them build confidence, develop healthy coping mechanisms, and thrive in all aspects of their life.
