For teens and parents

Your teen doesn’t have to want to come.

Plenty of teens show up skeptical, and that’s fine. Our clinicians start by listening, not lecturing, and go at a pace that lets trust build.

We see teens for anxiety, depression, school pressure, friendships, identity, grief and family conflict.

Parents stay part of the plan. Your teen gets real space to talk, and you get regular check-ins on how things are going and what helps at home.

Knowing when to call

Normal teen stuff, or something more?

Moodiness and pulling away can be normal. It’s worth a call when changes last more than a couple of weeks, or when grades, sleep, eating or friendships start to slide.

The free 15-minute consult is a low-pressure way to ask. We’ll tell you honestly whether counseling makes sense right now.
