Therapy for Teens
Watching your teen struggle is so hard. Teenagehood is a lot!
Juggling school work, extracurricular activities, and part-time jobs.
Pressure to maintain a certain image or academic status.
Navigating friendships and dating.
Pressure to conform to societal norms while learning who they are.
The hormonal changes of puberty.
Worries about “what’s next?” after high school.
It’s no wonder your teen is stressed, anxious, and/or depressed.
Together your teen and I can work on…
Finding healthy coping mechanisms that help them regulate extreme emotions.
Building resilience to help them process their experiences.
Practice expressing themselves and improving confidence.
Navigating identities such as race, gender identity, and sexual orientation.
Some teens and parents want the parent to be involved in therapy. We can work as a team to support your teen and strengthen communication at home. I focus on practical, age-appropriate strategies to help them feel more secure and capable. The pace of therapy is guided by your teen, and their comfort and confidentiality remain central throughout the process.
