These stressors can impact children, adolescents and adults and they are highly treatable.
I am Currently Not Accepting New Clients. Adjusting to life changes can present an overwhelming feeling that can keep you from living life to the fullest and enjoying what life has to offer. If you are experiencing feelings of sadness for no apparent reason; sudden changes in your personal relationships; excessive anxiety or fear; noticed a change in your child's academic performance or an unexplained and sudden shift in his/her mood or behavior or feeling physical complaints when no medical reasons can be found, these issues can produce undue stress resulting in a feeling of anxiety and depression.

I am a Christian Counselor. I believe that psychotherapy is more effective when Christ is central to the process. Since God created the child, adolescent and his/her parents, He is the one with the wisdom to bring healing and restoration to the family. Though I have specialized with children and adolescents many adults have requested to see me and now my practice is expanding to include adults. Christian Counseling unites Biblical values with the power of the Holy Spirit, together with the knowledge base of psychology and social work to bring emotional and mental health healing to people.

Teen Therapists

What does therapy for teenagers look like?

When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.

How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?

There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.

How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?

It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.

How do you prepare teens for therapy?

You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
