What is your go-to approach for teen counseling?

My go-to approach for helping people in teen counseling is CBT. I find the best benefit in CBT because it helps teens develop an understanding of how their thoughts and feelings regarding a situation impact their behaviors. It also helps them realize that they do have a choice in how they react to situations.

What tools do you teach in teen counseling?

I teach the following tools in teen counseling:

  • CBT skills
  • Assertive communication
  • Problem-solving skills
  • How to establish and maintain boundaries

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

I know a client is making meaningful progress in teen counseling when they have a decrease in problematic behaviors during interactions with parents, peers, teachers, and others. Also, when they begin to take the initiative to engage in positive activities that reflect self-improvement and self-confidence.

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

Clients can supplement their time in teen counseling by connecting with positive peer support through involvement in clubs, activities, or sports via school programs or community-based programs. They can also journal their thoughts and feelings for discussion in sessions and as a means to express themselves in constructive ways.

What should someone do to prepare for starting teen counseling?

To prepare for their first teen counseling session, a teen can consider the goals that they would like to work toward in counseling— what issues and behaviors have led them to their current struggles, and what they can do to improve their relationships with the people in their lives that are important to them.

Starting Teen counseling

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 Wyomissing 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 Wyomissing, 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.
