Therapy for Teens
The teenage years are a time of significant growth and transformation, often accompanied by unique challenges that can impact a young person’s mental and emotional well-being. At Expanding Horizons Therapy, I offer specialized support for teens navigating a wide range of issues, including anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and body image concerns. Therapy services also address the pressures of social media, identity exploration, peer relationships, and academic stress.
I understand the impact of family dynamics, peer pressure, and bullying, and provide a safe space for teens to express themselves, learn, grow and develop healthy coping strategies. Whether you are dealing with trauma, substance use, risky behaviors or the stress of life transitions, my approach is tailored to meet your specific needs. I focus on helping teens grow in self understanding, developing inner resilience and resources, improve communication skills, and manage strong emotions.
Through personalized and compassionate therapy, I aim to support you in building a positive self-image, fostering healthy relationships, and navigating the path to adulthood with confidence and emotional balance.
