A Note about Confidentiality:
As a parent, it makes sense that you want to support your teen in their counseling journey. We are so glad you are helping them in taking the step to speak with a counselor.
It feels important for us to create a welcoming and trusted space where the teen can process freely, without the fear of consequences. In hopes to respect their privacy, we keep a rule to not disclose the details of what’s shared in session. Of course, there are exceptions to this rule, and we will be quick to communicate if we find there is any risk of safety, for themselves or others.

How teen therapy can help
Developing emotional regulation and coping skills
Therapy can help teens learn practical tools to identify, understand, and manage their emotions in healthier ways. Through approaches like CBT and DBT, they’ll gain skills for navigating anxiety, anger, sadness, and stress—tools they'll carry with them long after therapy ends.
Improving communication and relationships
Counseling can help teens find words for what they're feeling and develop stronger communication skills with family, friends, and peers. They’ll learn to set boundaries, express needs, navigate conflict, and build more authentic connections with the people who matter most to them.
Processing difficult experiences and trauma
​
When teens have experienced loss, family disruption, bullying, or other challenging events, therapy provides a safe space to process those experiences. Using trauma-informed approaches like EMDR and attachment-based therapy, teens can work through pain and start healing.
Building confidence and self-understanding
The teen years are full of questions about identity, purpose, and belonging. Therapy offers a judgment-free space to explore who they are, what they value, and where they're headed—helping teens develop genuine confidence and a stronger sense of self.
