Teenagers & Adolescents

Therapy for teenagers and adolescents

Therapy for teenagers and adolescents offers a confidential space where young people can express themselves without judgement. While sharing many benefits with adult counselling, teen therapy is specifically tailored to help an adolescent through their unique challenges and developmental stages.

Through therapy, adolescents can:

• Learn to form healthy, emotionally secure relationships
• Develop fuller self-expression
• Navigate big emotions like anxiety, sadness, and fear
• Work through specific challenges or traumatic experiences
• Get support for behavioural concerns or harmful patterns

Our therapists are specially trained in adolescent development and use approaches proven effective for young people, including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), and family therapy.

Sessions usually last 50 minutes, with family sessions extending to 90 minutes when needed. Your therapist might work with you and your teenager together or separately, always maintaining appropriate confidentiality agreements. We also offer online counselling options for both teenagers and parents.
