What is your go-to approach for teen counseling?

My approach for helping adolescents aims to first establish an understanding of the teen as a person, and then address their circumstances or challenges. Too often, kids' most challenging behavior comes from trying to make their way into the world. I focus on teaching teens skills that will help them navigate and understand the world they live in.

What tools do you teach in teen counseling?

I often focus on teaching multi-disciplinary skills to adolescents, including but not limited to emotional regulation, self-exploration and affirmation, communication/conflict resolution skills, stress management, time management, organization, and setting and achieving goals.

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

I know an adolescent has made meaningful progress when they feel at peace and find things really do fall into place after that.

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

Teens can spend their personal time practicing skills, trying new strategies, and implementing effective compensatory skills to supplement adolescent counseling.

What should someone do to prepare for starting teen counseling?

Adolescents can best prepare for counseling by understanding that they decide their goals and the direction of their treatment. There isn't anything I can make you do and there may be things I suggest to help or benefit you further. It's up to you to decide what to do with it.

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 Cherry Hill 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 Cherry Hill, NJ 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.

★★★★★
My therapist listens and asks which coping skills I applied or would apply. Then we discuss if they worked and how am I with the results Then he teaches additional applications . I am better at creating and maintaining boundaries. However, it's a work in progress. I am also doing better at going outside. Still do not like crowds or close contact with people. e.g. elevators. So far my therapist is innovative, receptive and always prepared to work with all my varying challenges.
