What is your go-to approach for teen counseling?

My go-to approach for helping teens in counseling is to use a mix of CBT and DBT. I find the best benefit in this because it allows the teen to learn coping skills to help them regulate emotions and also addresses negative thinking patterns that are likely contributing to current symptoms.

What tools do you teach in teen counseling?

In teen counseling, I teach deep breathing, grounding techniques, emotional regulation, distress tolerance skills, and how to use the cognitive model.

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

I know a teen is making meaningful progress when they feel comfortable in sessions and they are using their coping skills and other tools outside of sessions.

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

Teens can supplement their time in counseling by engaging in activities they enjoy with people they like to be around. Being a teenager is hard, so it's important to make sure they make time for themselves to do enjoyable things.

What should someone do to prepare for starting teen counseling?

To prepare for their first teen counseling session, a teen can begin reflecting on their goals for their future and what barriers they have to achieving this.

Starting Teen counseling in North Charleston

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 North Charleston 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 North Charleston, SC 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.

I appreciate the seamless integration of technology (text and email communications), but it felt like a deluge with how many came in short succession. Perhaps they could be bundled or stepped differently to help signing up feel less overwhelming.

Dominique Darby is an excellent therapist, she has been so helpful to me and I have made more progress with her than I ever had with previous providers. I often recommend her by name to friends and colleagues struggling with depression and anxiety.
