Adolescent Therapy

Being an adolescent can be difficult, with stressors at home, at school, and with peers, which can lead to a number of emotional and behavioral struggles. Is your teen overwhelmed by their demands? Or do their emotions or behaviors seem unmanageable? Are you worried about their ability to cope and interact with others in an effective way?

Our Evanston therapists offer collaborative support and guidance for teens, working with parents and schools to provide vital consistency across a range of environments.

Adolescents encounter a range of difficulties, including:

• Academic struggles
• Difficulty with peers
• Learning to navigate romantic relationships
• Conflict with siblings or other family members
• Behavior problems/acting out
• Expected adolescent exploration and challenging of boundaries
• ADHD/LD
• Anxiety
• Depression

We utilize a range of approaches and interventions designed to specifically help teens through these challenges, including play therapy, sand tray therapy, geek therapy, parent coaching, and behavioral interventions. Our compassionate, professional therapists will help boost your child’s confidence and get them on a productive track to become a healthy, well adjusted adult.
