My go-to approach for helping people in teen counseling is to assure teens that the therapeutic process can be a safe place for them to openly talk about their lives, including what's going well and what's been challenging. I enjoy getting to know what teens are happy with and most proud of in their lives because this helps them recognize that talking to a therapist isn't just about “fixing the problem.”
I teach the following tools in teen counseling:
I know a client is making meaningful progress in teen counseling when he/she expresses an improvement in mood and a greater sense of control during and after challenging events.
Clients can supplement their time in teen counseling by completing worksheets, doing assigned readings, and practicing mastering their preferred coping skills.
To prepare for their first teen counseling session, a teen can think about what they would like to discuss in the session and remember that things may feel uncomfortable at first, but with time, speaking with a therapist can become easier and more rewarding.
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 Cornelius 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 Cornelius, NC 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.
Includes individual, couples, child/ teen, & family therapy
