Adolescent Therapy

We offer in-person and virtual therapy designed to support teens ages 12–17. Our services include individual sessions, group therapy, and psychoeducation classes that help adolescents build resilience, self-awareness, and healthy coping skills.

Should I try therapy?

Adolescence can be a time of rapid change and emotional growth. Therapy provides a safe, supportive space for teens to express themselves, understand their emotions, and develop healthy coping skills.

What are the benefits of therapy?

  • Emotional awareness and regulation: Teens learn to recognize and manage feelings like anxiety, anger, and sadness in healthy ways.

  • Improved communication: Therapy helps adolescents express their thoughts more clearly and build stronger relationships with family, peers, and teachers.

  • Better coping skills: Teens gain tools to manage stress, peer pressure, and life transitions with confidence.

  • Increased self-esteem: Through self-exploration and positive reinforcement, adolescents develop a stronger sense of identity and self-worth.

  • Academic and social support: Therapy can improve focus, motivation, and social interactions, contributing to overall well-being and success.

  • Prevention and early intervention: Addressing emotional or behavioral challenges early can prevent more serious issues from developing later on.
