Teen Therapy for Managing Stress and Overwhelm

Our teen therapy sessions are designed to help teenagers manage the stress and overwhelm that so often comes with this phase of life. We provide accessible and effective tools to cope with stress, anxiety, depression and the myriad symptoms that arise with mental health struggles. We help teens understand and regulate their emotions and thoughts, rather than being ruled by them. In our therapy sessions, teenagers can also learn to communicate more effectively, build confidence, and improve their self-esteem.

A Holistic Approach to Teen Therapy

At the Holistic Counseling Center, we understand that being a teenager in today's world can be challenging. Our teen therapy sessions offer evidence-based treatment to help teens navigate stress, anxiety, depression, and other mental health struggles. We approach therapy holistically, incorporating mind-body-spirit practices to promote sustainable change and improve overall well-being.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the gold standard in evidence-based treatment for anxiety and depression, and we integrate it into our holistic approach to therapy for teens. CBT is known for its effectiveness in transforming thought patterns that contribute to anxiety and depression. This evidence-based technique helps teenagers unravel the often complex web of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Through CBT, we guide teens to identify and change unhelpful thought patterns, helping them suffer less, and experience more joy and fulfillment in life.

In addition to CBT, our holistic approach to mental health acknowledges and honors the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. We recognize that true healing is more than just managing symptoms.

Our therapists teach mindfulness skills to help teens anchor into the present moment, cultivating confidence and peace of mind. Additionally, self-regulation tools are provided to equip teens with the ability to skillfully navigate the waves of emotion that come and go with insight and compassion, instead of judgement or fear.

A holistic approach to treating mental health challenges works synergistically to not only reduce symptoms, but also to improve self-esteem, self-love, and more easeful communication at home, at school, and with peers.
