Counseling provides teens with a safe, non-judgmental place to talk about their feelings and process the challenges of growing up. If your teen is constantly worried, acting out, or experimenting with risky behavior, it might be time to find help.

Working with a counselor can help improve your teen’s self-confidence, overall mood, and coping skills. Through therapy, teens learn and strengthen life skills like emotion regulation, effective communication, empathy, assertiveness, and self-awareness. DBT is often beneficial for teens.
