Adolescents

The teen years are a time of change, new experiences, and growth for most adolescents. While this can be very exciting and fun, it often presents difficult challenges. Some difficulties commonly experienced by adolescent children are:

Low self-esteem

Feelings of loneliness

Feeling misunderstood

Anxiety

Depression

Relationship issues

It can be difficult for an adolescent to work through some of these concerns alone. And for some teens, it is a challenge to find someone they can trust. Individual therapy provides a safe atmosphere that is built on trust. Therapy can address any of the issues listed above. Some additional benefits of therapy include:

Increased self-confidence

Finding a balance between independence and maintaining the connection with family

Improved decision making skills

Identifying future goals/achieving goals

Increased understanding of personal responsibility
