Youth & Adolescent Counseling

Growing up is harder than it looks. Children and teens face enormous pressures—academic, social, family, and internal—and they often lack the vocabulary to express what they’re struggling with. Our therapists are skilled at meeting young people where they are, building trust, and creating real change during some of the most formative years of their lives.

What We Offer

Anxiety and school refusal
Depression and mood disorders in youth
ADHD and executive function struggles
Behavioral challenges and defiance
Peer relationship and social skills difficulties
Trauma and abuse
Self-harm and suicidal ideation
Identity, LGBTQ+ affirmation, and self-esteem

How It Works

We begin with a family intake to understand the full picture, then typically see the young person individually—with parental involvement calibrated to the child’s age and the presenting concern. For younger children, play therapy and expressive techniques are integrated naturally into sessions.

Who This Is For

We work with children as young as four through young adulthood. Parents and caregivers are considered partners in the therapeutic process, and we offer parent coaching alongside individual youth work when helpful.
