HEY PARENTS! WE KNOW. YOUR TEEN DRIVES YOU NUTS, AND YOU WORRY ABOUT THEM A LOT…

Maybe there’s some serious, communication barriers.

You’re struggling to connect with your teen, or you might feel frustrated by the lack of open dialogue and understanding in your relationship.

They feel a lot of pressure, and you’re concerned about how intense their emotions are, the panic attacks, the withdraw, maybe even self harm.

You love your child and want to ensure they have a balanced and healthy life.

AND LETS BE REAL, YOU ARE TRYING TO DO THE BALANCING ACT, AND YOU’RE STRETCHED THIN TOO

We know it’s hard watching your teen struggle with anxiety, depression, or the impacts of trauma that can make you feel powerless.

And it feels impossible to manage the needs of everyone in your family, and center your teen’s mental health the way you know they deserve.

 
 

How Therapy for Teens Can Help

 
 

Let us take some of the load off.

We provide brain based therapies like EMDR & Brainspotting, to help your teen cope, heal and thrive.

 
 
 

Some of the benefits from therapy for your teen include:

  • Improved Emotional Regulation & Communication: Your teen will learn to manage and articulate their emotions better, reducing anxiety, depression, and trauma triggers.

  • Enhanced Self-Esteem: Your teen will build a stronger sense of self-worth and confidence, positively impacting their frienships, relationships and ability to maintain boundaries.

  • Healthy Coping Mechanisms: Your teen will learn practical tools and strategies to cope with stress, peer pressure, and other challenges, fostering resilience.

  • Reduced Family Stress: Addressing your teen's mental health needs can significantly reduce overall family stress, creating a calmer and more supportive atmosphere at home.

  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) is a special type of therapy. Its purpose is to focus on breaking down negative thoughts and beliefs about yourself. Which often stem from traumatic or disturbing events.

  • Brainspotting is a special type of therapy that is focused on bypassing the "thinking" part of our brain. This allows us to access the deeper emotional and body-based parts of the brain.
