Irritability, sleepiness, and sadness can be a normal part of being a teenager but some teens also have an underlying mental illness. One out of every five teens—20% of the population—has an underlying mental disorder and could benefit from early intervention. In therapy, we will help to isolate your teen’s current situational problems from deeper ones so they can get the help they need.
We work with your teen to resolve behavior problems and teach them healthy coping skills they can use for the rest of their lives. Our goal is to help your teen to recognize problems on their own and have the tools needed to fix them. We also work to repair communication skills and help families resolve any internal conflict.
