What is your go-to approach for teen counseling?

My go-to approach for helping teens is to validate how difficult it is to be a teenager and navigate being in high school/middle school. I also work on finding a common ground between myself and the client to increase trust and openness.

What tools do you teach in teen counseling?

The tools I teach in teen therapy include effective communication, emotion regulation, boundary setting, positive self-talk, and self-compassion.

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

I know that an adolescent client is making meaningful progress when they have an easier time opening up and reaching out for support.

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

Clients can supplement their time in therapy by practicing daily self-care and healthy coping tools.

What should someone do to prepare for starting teen counseling?

In order to prepare for the first session, you can work on identifying the areas of your life that you would like to work on and normalize getting help!

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 Philadelphia 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 Philadelphia, PA 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 think my therapist is very helpful and personable, and always communicates quickly with me. My nurse practitioner isn't great about responding quickly, though. I really appreciate good communication.
