Teen Therapy

Teens face unique challenges that can often be overlooked. They are at a stage where they are too mature to be treated as children but not yet fully independent adults. They encounter issues we might have forgotten or never experienced, amplified by the technology of today. While access to information can be beneficial, it also exposes them to risks that were less prevalent in the past.

 

Some of the challenges teens face today include:

– Cyberbullying

– Exposure to sexualized content and advances

– Feelings of isolation

– Difficulty forming and maintaining friendships

– Mental and emotional abuse

 

These challenges can contribute to serious issues such as:

– Depression

– Anxiety

– Suicidal thoughts

– Eating disorders

– Body image concerns

– Low self-esteem and confidence

 

We also address family-related issues that might impact your teen’s well-being.

 

At Serendipity, our therapists are skilled in working with teens, using models such as CBT and ACT, to help them identify and address their struggles. We aim to provide a supportive environment where your teen feels heard and understood. Sometimes, having a dedicated professional to listen and offer guidance can make a significant difference.

We also provide psychiatric services if it is determined that your teen could benefit from medication intervention.
