Teen counseling helps young individuals better understand and manage the challenges that affect their mental health. Common challenges amongst teens include anxiety, depression, ADHD, and problematic relationships with food.
Teen counseling works by using multiple techniques, tailored to fit the teen’s unique needs — based on their age group, their challenges, and the severity of their challenges. It might involve cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, art therapy, and others for varying ages. In any case, Thriveworks teen therapists in Beverly Hills have the expertise and experience to help young individuals at their level.
Signs that teens might need Teen counseling can be very subjective, as they are experiencing many changes and can have intense reactions to them. As parents, you know your child best and are best equipped to judge whether certain reactions are standard behaviors for your teen or whether they might be hinting at a larger problem. Even so, there are a few common signs and events that often point to a need for therapy, such as experiencing divorce or loss, grief, consistent low moods, teens distancing themselves and becoming isolated, losing interest in hobbies, excessive anger or irritability, substance use issues, and suicidal ideation, among others.
Teen counseling providers at Thriveworks in Beverly Hills, MI offer both in person and online therapy by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.
The length of teen counseling depends on your teen’s needs as well as the goals that you and their therapist might have for them. Generally, teen counseling sessions will last for several months.
We all expect a little rebellion from our teenagers. Pushing the boundaries, arguing over curfews, phone usage, and household chores; these things are a normal part of most households with teenagers. However, there comes a point when the arguments, the slammed doors, the lying, and the secrecy become more than we can handle. When this happens, it can be very helpful to have a neutral third party to create open communication and honesty in the family. Thriveworks Birmingham counselors can talk to your teen in a different way than you can, as the parent. We are trained professionals, able to help break down walls and create a healthy space for your child to grow and learn more about themselves.
If your teenager is dealing with a serious issue, such as an abusive relationship, drug or alcohol addiction, or an eating disorder, we also have counselors and therapists able to help diagnose and treat these types of problems. Perhaps you have been worried about your child for quite some time. The sweet, talkative child that you once knew is nowhere to be found. Trust your parental instinct.
When you call Thriveworks Birmingham, unlike many counseling offices, we have appointments available for new clients within the same week.
