To complete my graduate degree in music therapy, I took both music therapy and traditional counseling courses to create a well-rounded approach that I have continued to actively cultivate in my 10 years of practice with adults and teens.
It's hard to find the right therapist, but here are my suggestions for non-negotiables in your search for a great therapist for yourself:
1) You just "click." You feel at ease and not judged with them.
2) They are passionate about this work and forever actively pursue growth as a clinician rather than the bare minimum. It matters.
3) You're the expert on you. They're the expert on the process. As in, they refrain from giving personal advice and instead help you explore and embrace what's true for you.
4) They hold professional boundaries. This is crucial even though it's normal to want to be friends with someone you like and trust!

FAQ - Teenage and Adolescent 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.
