Adolescent / Teen Therapy
Adolescent / Teen Therapy
The teenage years can be a challenging time for families and teens. There may be more freedoms, but this comes with physical, mental, and emotional challenges.
There are many stressors like doing well in school, finding your social group, communicating with parents and siblings, dealing with body changes, understanding the social scene, and thinking about the future. You may need specific help with learning challenges such as ADHD, Autism Spectrum (ASD), neurodivergence, social anxiety, depression, and relational and expression challenges.
Talking with an objective Therapist who empowers and meets you where you are can help. In a safe, supportive environment with evidence-based treatment, you can address these challenges, gain coping strategies, and feel more in control of your life.
