Teenagers can significantly benefit from having an external support system, different from their family and peer circles, to help them navigate and process their thoughts, feelings, and experiences.
As children transition into adolescence, they cultivate essential social skills and emotional intelligence that are crucial for leading fulfilling lives.
When adolescents face emotions or behaviors that impede their happiness and overall well-being, teen therapy can provide invaluable assistance.
​
During this transformative period, the importance of peer relationships and academic success is amplified.
Adolescence brings about a broader and more intricate range of emotions. The challenges encountered within academic and social environments can contribute to mental health issues such as depression and anxiety.
As the pressure of academic and social responsibilities increases, conditions like attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and oppositional behavior may also emerge. It is critical to offer support and awareness during this essential developmental stage, which we facilitate through our teen therapy sessions.
Psychological Testing and Evaluations
Psychological testing and evaluation use various tests to identify the causes of mental health symptoms and disorders, especially when underlying are unclear. This process may include aptitude tests, personality assessments, and cognitive screenings, typically taking several hours and involving written tests, questionnaires, and clinician interviews. Results help formulate an evaluation, determine a diagnosis, and create a personalized treatment plan. These can be particularly helpful when the problem is unclear, despite apparent symptoms like academic or social difficulties in children or relationship struggles in adults.
