Adolescents Are Not Mini-Adults
Teenagers face unique challenges that require tailored care—especially when it comes to mental and behavioral health. They are navigating complex emotional, social, and developmental changes, and need support that reflects these specific needs.
Our adolescent therapists are specially trained to work with this age group. They bring expertise in understanding the psychological and emotional factors that can affect teens during this critical stage of life.
Adolescent therapy can support a wide range of concerns, including:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- Eating disorders
- Substance use
- Behavioral issues
- Relationship difficulties
- Communication challenges
Common types of adolescent therapy include:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps teens recognize and shift negative thought patterns and behaviors.
Family Therapy: Involves the teen and their family to improve communication and resolve conflicts within the family system.
Group Therapy: Offers teens a supportive environment to connect with peers facing similar struggles.
Play Therapy: Uses creative tools such as art and play to help teens express emotions and process experiences.
If a teen is struggling, it’s important they reach out to a trusted adult or a qualified healthcare professional. Early support can make a lasting difference.
