How We Help Teens

Life can be confusing.

Navigating the teenage years can be tough, especially when big emotions feel overwhelming. Many teens struggle to express their feelings and needs, leading to frustration and confusion.

Teen therapy can help them articulate their feelings.

Our Approach

How Teen Therapy Works

We Listen To You

We meet with you and your teen to understand where they are now, what challenges they are facing, and what the ideal result looks like for you & your teen after therapy.

We Create A Plan

We create a treatment plan that speaks to your family’s needs and your teen’s specific concerns. We work at a pace your teen can handle and give you strategies to manage outside of therapy.

We Work Towards Your Goals

Together, we help you learn tools and strategies that help you move toward your goals for your teen and family. We take it one step at a time and re-evaluate often.

How Teen Therapy Can Help

Teens today face immense pressure to meet high expectations without the necessary tools to manage stress. Social media adds to this pressure, making them feel they must look a certain way, stay trendy, and be popular, which can lead to poor self-esteem, body image issues, anxiety, and depression.

However, there is help.


Seeking therapy might seem overwhelming, especially if you believe your teen’s behavior is just a phase. We offer a supportive and calm environment for teens to openly discuss their feelings and experiences.

Teen therapy can help them:

With our support, teens learn to articulate their feelings and needs, leading to improved relationships and a greater sense of self-worth.

Divorce, or death of a family member can make teens feel stuck and worried. Teen therapy helps them handle these feelings of loss by letting them explore and understand their emotions.

We’ll help them boost their confidence, learn new social and academic skills, and develop a deeper awareness of who they are. 

Divorce or blending of families often brings significant changes to a teen’s life. Teen therapy helps children process and adapt to these changes by allowing them to explore and make sense of their new family dynamics in a safe and supportive environment.

Teen therapy can ease out of control worries. It gives kids a structured and reassuring place to express themselves, making them feel secure and better able to cope with uncertainties.

Teen therapy can include sessions with parents, making the family bond stronger. It helps parents and teens connect better, creating a supportive family during and after life’s big and small changes.

Who We are

Why Work With Power Within Child Therapists

Kids know when you’re not being honest.

We talk to them like real people who need someone to be there for them as they are walking through challenges and teach them new ways of being with their peers, their parents, and themselves.

We believe that everyone has the power to heal within themselves including our children, and it’s our job to point each child in the right direction on their journey to healing.

At Power Within Child Therapists, we empower children to realize that they can face tough situations and come out stronger. They discover that their situation doesn’t define them – they can go through hard times and still be OK, or even better! We work to reframe the challenges, uncertainties and big feelings life may bring while helping parents and children to feel loved, more confident, and supported through all of it.

We are goal-oriented, focused on helping you and your child reach a place of confidence and peace, and we help you do the work to make that possible.

What We Believe in

All parts of you are welcome here. We explore all that you or your child bring into therapy, taking time to embrace every emotion and experience as a vital piece of the healing process.

 

Healing can be fun, and it can also require endurance. We guide you through every stage of the process, celebrating success and navigating challenges together every step of the way.

Every family and child is unique, and your therapy journey should reflect that! We adapt our approach to fit YOU so that your experience is as effective and meaningful as possible.

We believe that you are the hero of your life and have the freedom to live the way you want. We offer flexibility in treatment and tailor the goals to match. Feeling free, allows change with ease and gets faster results.

Integrity just does not cut the magnitude of our standards of care. We hold ourselves to the highest of ethics and do whatever is best to support you on your journey with respect, dignity, and safety.

On the other side of challenges – you can be OK… or even better.
