Therapy for Adolescents
Adolescence is a time of transition—you’re no longer who you were as a child, but you’re not yet sure who you’re becoming. It can feel like standing on shaky ground, losing your sense of security in both the world and yourself. The familiar is slipping away, and what comes next is unknown.
Maybe you’re:
anxious, withdrawn, or stuck in self-doubt.
Maybe conflicts with family or friends feel more intense, or it’s hard to express what’s really going on inside.
These struggles are normal, but when they start to feel too heavy to carry alone, therapy can help.
We’ll also explore whether and how to involve your parents, ensuring you feel supported in a way that works best for you.
French psychoanalyst Françoise Dolto compared adolescence to a crab shedding its shell—vulnerable, exposed, and defenseless until a new one forms. It’s a time of uncertainty but also immense growth.
