No one needs to be told that the teen years can be a struggle, for teens and their parents.
Teens, we see you. The pressure of increasingly competitive academics, long days filled with extracurricular activities, and trying to stay relevant on social media, while navigating conflict and peer pressure is enough to make anyone stressed out.
Parents, we see you. We see you desperately wanting to connect with your teen. One parent described her experience of raising a teen like trying to hug a cactus. We know you want them to be happy and safe. We want to help. Therapy is a great place for teens to process their stresses with a trusted adult, develop healthy coping skills, and learn about healthy relationships.
Some teens experience highly distressing emotional pain that leads them to believe their best option to cope is self-harm or suicide. If you believe your child may be at risk of harming themselves, our therapists are skilled in risk assessment and safety planning and can help your child develop new skills to cope.
Whether you are coming to us as a parent or a teen, you can expect to be met with acceptance, empathy, and high quality care.
