My go-to approach for helping people in teen counseling is creating a sense of acceptance and understanding. I find the best benefit in relationship-building because many teens feel alienated or are engaged in power struggles and are seeking allies to develop agency in their lives.
I teach the following tools in teen counseling: CBT skills to differentiate emotions from facts and mindfulness to gain perspective outside of social media or beyond social isolation.
I know a teen client is making meaningful progress when they experience reduced conflict, improved and more accurate awareness of their abilities, and don't confuse understanding with acceptance or approval.
Clients can supplement time in teen counseling by listening to podcasts about well-being and using journaling to develop perspective about events and reactions over time.
To prepare for their first teen counseling session, a teen can make a list of changes they hope to create, identify who their closest supports are, and think about what they admire in friends and family members.
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 Cedar Park 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 Cedar Park, TX 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
Includes reducing symptoms with medication & management
