Teen Therapy
Teen therapy provides support for teens and their parents
A growing number of teens are struggling with anxiety, depression and trauma symptoms. Many parents need help and a new direction.
Families want to understand how to support their struggling teens and to know when their child’s symptoms require treatment.
With twenty years of experience working closely with adolescents and families in various clinical settings, I have a proven record of offering counsel for young people and their families that leads to real change.
I place great value on working closely with the family-system when working with teen clients, weaving individual and family therapy together in a manner that leads to the most impactful results.
Change is possible for your son or daughter
At Blue Collar Counseling, I provide mental health support for teens, allowing them to experience positive change. Parents often notice a difference right away with their teens under my care.
Regardless of the complexity of the problem, positive changes often seamlessly occur when families enter treatment authentically and are motivated to change. With the proper guidance and family participation, I have found that young people can make dramatic shifts in a relatively short period of time.
Blue Collar Counseling offers effective adolescent and family mental health treatment that empowers young adults and their parents to enter the next stage of their lives together with confidence, self-knowledge and healthy coping skills.
Teen therapy has many short-term benefits
Therapy can help enhance your teen’s interest in activities and social connections and teach them to increase their emotional regulation and executive functioning skills.
Your teen will display more energy and a remarkable ability to relax, rest and have better sleep and appetite.
Other improvements include increased concentration and self-esteem.
Therapy can help reduce suicidal thoughts and behaviors, as teen clients learn to express, process and integrate the complex parts of their lives and relationships.
Therapy also offers long-term benefits for your child
Your teen will gain the ability to build authentic, trusting connections with self, family, peers and their larger community.
They will gain an increased sense of purpose and meaning that motivates engagement in academics and other areas of life.
Greater trust and support within the parent-child relationship that promotes continual growth and healing between parents and their teens is a significant benefit.
Your teen will gain enhanced resilience and self-compassion and display healthy and more versatile coping and self-care skills that impact multiple aspects of your teen’s development and future endeavors.
