Teens Face A Lot Of Pressure and Challenges

Are you concerned about your mental health or ability to cope with stress? Are you having difficulties with school, peer relationships or getting along within your family? Perhaps you are struggling with feelings of sadness, anxiety, or stressed by issues related to self esteem, body image, gender or sexual identity. Adolescence and young adulthood can be hard even in the best of times facing pressures from school, peers, family, and society. 

We create a safe space for you to vent, understand your emotions better, and learn coping strategies to help manage day-to-day living.

It is important to us that you feel heard, seen and respected.

Your therapist will support you with improving the areas that are causing you stress. We understand that talking to someone may feel awkward at first and we strive to create a relaxed and comfortable environment where you feel comfortable to share what is real and important to you. Through therapy, we will help you explore and talk about what is bothering you, develop coping and stress management strategies, and social, study or other life skills.
