Teen Therapy

So many pressures – from all directions…

“Once again, I’m lying to my parents about homework. I hate it. It’s hard – very hard – and I’m frustrated. I used to try really hard, but it wasn’t really paying off. My grades slipped anyway. And I know when my parents find out, I’ll be on punishment: no TV, no video games, no friends over… it’s not like I have friends come over anyway.”

“There’s violence and bullying all around me. They call you names no matter what you do – if you get good grades, don’t wear stylish clothes, or don’t have the right friends. I’ve even seen them pour drinks on people’s food! The teachers see it, but nothing happens. It probably won’t be long before I’m the one in a fight. I’m sick of it all!”

“I would talk to my parents about things going on in my life, but they have so much going on themselves with the separation and divorce. What will my future look like? My world is getting more confusing.”

Does anyone really understand the teenage years?

There are SO many changes, transitions, anticipations, expectations, and frustrations.

Everything feels like a challenge: friendships, relationships, the future, being different, being yourself, not letting anyone down… it’s hard figuring all this out.

It’s no wonder our teens have so much anxiety and depression!

A caterpillar on its way to becoming a butterfly…

That’s kind of where you are as a teen. You’re in a physical, mental, and emotional growth spurt!

I’m here to help you through it.

I’ll boost your confidence by giving you a space to express yourself in a non-confrontational, nonjudgmental, autonomous space. When you’re here, you can face challenges with guidance and safety so you’ll make good decisions as you become an adult.

Together, we’ll explore the parts of you that are keeping you from being your best self. You’ll regain a sense of clarity and connection through insight and creativity.

Our sessions are virtual, so you can decide the most comfortable space for your therapy sessions.

There’s no time to waste!

The teenage years don’t have to be this painful.

Let’s face the future with courage and a sense of calm.
