My go-to approach for helping teens is CBT. I like to use CBT, as it is usually short-term and goal-oriented, which can be appealing to teens who want to see results quickly.
I teach teens how to practice deep breathing to allow the heart rate to come down when feeling anxious. Also, I teach teens to talk about what they have going on and not hold it all inside.
I know clients are making meaningful progress in teen counseling as they report that they are able to use their coping skills daily and work through tough topics.
Clients can supplement their time in counseling with journaling daily to let their thoughts out.
To prepare for their first session, teens can read therapists' bios so that they know who they will be meeting with. Also, knowing that the therapist is there for them to meet the client where they are.
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 Novi 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 Novi, MI 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
