What is your go-to approach for teen counseling?

In working with teens, I work to establish a connection and utilize a more relational approach in helping them identify goals they want to work toward. Working with teens is enjoyable, as you can see progress made through their confidence, communication, and expression.

What tools do you teach in teen counseling?

In working with teens, we work toward whatever goal(s) the teen has. This oftentimes looks like understanding their own emotions, improving communication, or managing social situations. Skills can be in coping strategies, self-talk, or soothing strategies.

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

When teens are making progress, they come to sessions with more happy or prideful moments rather than moments that are upsetting or sad.

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

Outside of sessions, teens are encouraged to utilize skills discussed in the session.

What should someone do to prepare for starting teen counseling?

Teens can prepare for their first sessions by identifying areas of concern for themselves.

Teen counseling FAQs

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 Bensalem 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 Bensalem, PA 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.
