Therapists may address bullying, depression, social pressures, stress, communication with others, and developmental and issues with one’s identity.  The therapist may teach healthy coping skills to help adolescents and teens address such problems.  It is important for the therapist to develop rapport and trust in order to achieve these goals. 

Our therapists can support your adolescent or teen in managing changes in their lives, such as integrating into new social groups, managing peer pressure, preparing for the transition into middle school, high school, or college, or learning to express their feelings with the use of words rather than in more aggressive behaviors. Our therapists will aim to support your teen in better understanding their feelings and problem solve through the issues they present.
