Adolescents and Their Issues

Adolescence is a time of vast changes physically, mentally and emotionally. Did I mention socially!

Adolescents have a lot they are struggling with nowadays. I see adolescents in therapy for the following issues:

Depression

Anxiety including social anxiety and performance anxiety

Addiction issues

Parental communication problems

Eating Disorders

ADHD

Difficulty transitioning between schools or grades

Peer pressure problems

Self esteem/self concept difficulties

Scholastic underperforming

Overcoming abuse

Bullying
Preparing to go to College

Divorce

Many times adolescents may be having a difficult time navigating school and peer pressures for a lot of different reasons.

Working with a good therapist who understands adolescent issues can help get them through this period successfully.

I welcome calls from parents or the adolescent themselves to get started.
