What is your go-to approach for teen counseling?

My go-to approach for helping people in teen counseling is getting to know them on a personal level. I find the best benefit in developing a personal connection because I want them to feel safe and develop trust in me.

What tools do you teach in teen counseling?

I teach the following tools in teen counseling:

  • Coping skills
  • Communication skills
  • Emotional self-regulation skills
  • Healthy relationship skills

How do you know when a client is making meaningful progress in teen counseling?

I know a client is making meaningful progress in teen counseling when they are able to describe situations they have used the skills on their own and can recognize situations that show improvement with the usage of the skills learned in sessions.

What can clients do in their personal time to supplement teen counseling?

Clients can supplement their time in teen counseling with podcasts and reading information that corresponds with the skills taught in sessions.

What should someone do to prepare for starting teen counseling?

To prepare for their first teen counseling session, a teen can recognize that therapy is not to recognize fault, but can help them understand themselves a lot better and learn ways to make life much more peaceful for them and those close to them.

Starting Teen counseling in Houston

What is teen counseling?

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.

How does teen counseling work?

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 Houston have the expertise and experience to help young individuals at their level.

Does my teen need therapy?

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.

Is teen counseling conducted in person or online?

Teen counseling providers at Thriveworks in Houston, TX offer both in person and online therapy by video. We encourage you to choose the option that works best for you.

How long does teen counseling last?

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.

So lucky to live at a time when therapy is more acceptable and encouraged rather than back in the day. I wish I would’ve reached out sooner. After a traumatic event, my life was spinning out of control. I now feel like I’m more equipped to manage the issues that arise.
