Teen Therapy: Support for Teens 

 ​

What is Teen Psychotherapy?

Teen psychotherapy is the field of medicine that focuses on diagnosing, treating, and preventing emotional, behavioral, cognitive, social, and mental health disorders in patients ages 12 – 17. At Mind Therapy, Licensed Therapist have advanced training and expertise in treating the unique needs of teens. They are exceptionally skilled at helping teens affected by depression, anxiety and panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), bipolar disorder, grief, anger, and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), among other concerns. 

Mental Health Care for Teens

Being a teenager in today’s day and age can be extremely stressful. On top of all of the expectations, social media can compound the issue. As your child navigates their teenage years, they are going to learn about themselves and the world around them, including what they are looking for in different friendships and relationships. During this time, friend groups often shift and may cause your teen to experience a lack of self-esteem, which can ultimately lead to a host of emotional difficulties. 

​

Navigating their social lives, balancing school work and their own needs can start to feel overwhelming. When this happens, it is not uncommon for your teen to develop mood swings, anxiety, or depression. When teens experience these feelings, they can engage in risky behaviors such as experimenting with drugs, alcohol, and sex. As a parent, we know this can sound scary and overwhelming, but you are not alone and we have the tools to help.
