Teens face a variety of unique challenges within our ever-changing society. Internal family and external societal pressures can create an environment that fosters unhealthy coping, decision-making, and behavioral choices. Therapy can provide a safe space for teens to explore their experiences, set goals, and learn new techniques to address the pressures they face.

Common symptoms of teen anxiety or depression:

• Intrusive thoughts
• Insomnia/Hypersomnia
• Difficulty Concentrating
• Insolation (withdrawal from friends and family)
• Eating disturbances
• Weight Changes
• Loss of interest
• Grade Changes
