Do you love someone who has an addiction? Have you recently lost someone close to you? Are you coming to terms with the effects of an affair or having relationship difficulties? Addiction, infidelity, grief, and loss are things that many of us struggle with and during these times it can be easy to lose sight of what we need or what makes our lives have meaning. I have found that acceptance, gratitude, and building resilience help us through our most trying times. Having done this work at many important junctures in my life, I offer my assistance to those who are going through these and other difficult life transitions.

Have you wondered where your life is going and found that personal difficulties have gotten in your way? My clients come to see me with issues related to depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship, children and many other issues. I see symptoms as an opportunity for growth. Therapy, like life, is a journey with definite stages. Initially, I work with the individual in talking about their life and issues of concern. The next stage involves processing and healing the stuck places. As this occurs, I see people then ready to find their resources, living into their goals, their essence, their being.

Teen Therapists

What does therapy for teenagers look like?

When a therapist works with a teenager, the pair will talk about what the teen is struggling with and explore solutions, which may involve interpersonal skills, coping strategies, medication, or lifestyle changes related to sleep, diet, and exercise. Different therapists employ different modalities, but most involve a combination of conversation and skill building.

How long does therapy for teenagers generally take to work?

There’s variability in teenagers’ experiences and challenges; some may begin to improve from therapy within a few weeks while others may take several months or longer. Teens can discuss their progress with their therapist periodically to assess how they’re improving and any changes to the treatment plan that could potentially accelerate that progress.

How do you encourage a teenager to go to therapy?

It’s helpful to express your concern and love while framing therapy as an opportunity to explore a tool that could help improve their life; just like they practice baseball or dance, now they can practice their emotional skills. Give your teen control over the process where you can—maybe by weighing in on choice of therapist and signaling that therapy involves confidentiality, so a parent need not know all that is discussed in sessions.

How do you prepare teens for therapy?

You can prepare your teenager for therapy by describing what the process will look like and setting expectations for timeline, if requested. You can explain that the first session may begin with an assessment phase, that they can describe their experiences but that the therapist will ask questions too, and that it may take time to feel comfortable opening up. Ask how they’re feeling about the process and answer any questions calmly and supportively.
