Starting Teen counseling in Rowlett

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 Rowlett 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 Rowlett, 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.

Dreatha has been wonderful. Very professional but warm and open, with great insights and suggestions, and the ability to make me think about situations or feelings in an objective way while offering various views. Always supportive and made me feel heard. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone who could use the support and assistance. She's the only therapist I've ever worked with, but she has to be one of the best!

I look forward to my 10 o'clock appointment every Thursday, I don't have a very large social circle, so it's good to have that 30 minutes or 45 minutes at least to chat about What's going on in my life. It's Cathartic and he seems to listen. I feel like I've known him for a long time. I have a lot of respect for him And all of his accomplishments. It's nice to have someone to be able to speak my mind about what's going on in my life and get good advice back. Doing better every day, one day at a time.
