What is your go-to approach for teen counseling?

I approach teen counseling as a multi-faceted process. I combine key aspects of Gottman emotion coaching, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and conscious discipline practices. I enjoy engaging with my teen clients and find considerable benefit in including parents. I strive to create a nurturing and supportive space for teens to explore their emotions, develop essential life skills, and build resilience in the face of life challenges.

What tools do you teach in teen counseling?

I teach the following tools in teen counseling: emotional awareness, emotional regulation, problem-solving, communication skills, and the acceptance of things outside their control.

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

When parents and teens report that conflicts have decreased and communication has increased, I know we are making progress. I also look for growth in self-awareness and self-reflection when we are discussing issues that the teen is facing. I really know a client is making meaningful progress in teen counseling when parents and teens report feeling connected again.

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

I would recommend parents do some reading and reflecting on their parenting beliefs and strategies that they are currently using. Taking time to really listen to and engage with the concerns and opinions of their teen can help provide a window into their world. Even when we don't agree, validating their experiences and emotions helps them learn to trust, problem-solve, and feel valued.

What should someone do to prepare for starting teen counseling?

As with any counseling, to prepare for their first teen counseling session, a teen can try to come in with an open mind and give it at least 3 sessions before they decide it isn't for them — you might be surprised! Having a list of questions and concerns is also helpful in allaying any concerns or misconceptions they might have about the process.

Starting Teen counseling in Cypress

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 Cypress 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 Cypress, 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.

My counselor was incredibly warm and gracious.. I attempted to contact you 6/25 at 855-675-9513 to speak to someone about a text I received at 2:30 a.m. and all I got was the recording and waited for assistance and the recording started over again. Tried again and the same thing happened.
