Teen Therapy

Taking charge of one’s life involves risk, because it means confronting a diversity of open possibilities

If you feel that your typically balanced child starts to teeter towards worrisome behaviours, such as isolation, self-harm, a drop in academic performance, drop in sleep or appetite, or is acting out, these are red flags to seek professional guidance. Given the fact that most teenagers may not be able to directly seek help or say it out loud, these changes may be a cry for help.

Teenage years can be exciting and difficult. These years are often marked by heightened feelings and conflicts. Transitioning into teenage or adulthood can be quite stressful and tricky. It can be hard to understand the amalgamation of hormonal changes, life changes, identity formations, personal growth, school related issues and feelings of no longer being a child. During this period, we are confronted with personal, professional, social and relationship challenges along with external expectations. This can be an unsettling time for teens as well as parents alike. Therapy can help you explore your values, strengths, coping strategies, interests and assist you. Tailored therapy and solutions are offered in a safe and confidential collaboration using Evidence-Based Treatment approach.
