Adolescent Session

Our adolescent therapist creates a trusting environment which makes it much easier for the teen to express his/her thoughts and feelings and to use the therapy in a helpful way. Psychotherapy helps adolescents receive emotional support, resolve conflicts with people, understand feelings and problems, and try out new solutions to old problems. Goals for therapy may be specific (change in behavior, improved relations with friends or family), or more general (less anxiety, better self-esteem). The length of psychotherapy depends on the complexity and severity of problems.
