The teen years are an important period of development. Mental health struggles are not uncommon during these years, with one in three high school students reporting difficulties such as sadness and hopelessness. Just as with adults, therapy can be a helpful resource for teens to address some of these common concerns. Teenagers often struggle with conflict and relationship issues between both peers and family.

Any teen struggling with their mental health can benefit from therapy.

Common reasons for a teen to seek therapy include:

Parent-child conflict

Problems between siblings

School/academic difficulties

Anxiety/depression

ADHD

Bullying

Peer Pressure

Anger Management 

Therapy may help to address issues and increase coping skills. It can equip individuals to better manage the changes and stress that come with being a teenager. If any of the above scenarios resonate with your teen, therapy can be beneficial.
