Supporting teens virtually and in person throughout Massachusetts

Being a Teen Today Is a Lot—and You Don’t Have to Handle It Alone

If your teen is feeling anxious, withdrawn, overwhelmed, or unlike themselves, they’re not alone.

Adolescence is a time of enormous change—emotionally, socially, physically, and mentally. With pressure coming from school, social media, relationships, identity, and expectations (their own and others’), it’s no wonder so many teens feel like they’re constantly trying to keep up—or falling behind.

Therapy gives teens a safe space to talk about what’s really going on and to learn how to manage their emotions, build confidence, and feel more in control of their world.

What Is Therapy for Teens?

Teen therapy is a supportive, confidential space where adolescents can explore their thoughts and feelings, build coping tools, and develop a stronger sense of who they are. It’s designed specifically to meet them where they are—with curiosity, empathy, and respect.

Teens often come to therapy for things like:

  • Anxiety, panic, or constant worry

  • Social isolation or fear of judgment

  • Mood swings, sadness, or low motivation

  • School stress, academic burnout, or perfectionism

  • Conflict with friends, parents, or authority figures

  • Identity exploration (gender, sexuality, values)

  • Body image issues or low self-esteem

  • Difficulty managing screen time or social media pressures

Therapy helps teens feel less alone in their struggles—and more empowered to handle them.

How Therapy Helps Teens

Understand what’s happening
Give your teen the language to name their emotions and understand why they feel what they feel.

Break the cycle
Help them move out of spirals of overthinking, fear, or shutdown with healthier tools.

Build resilience
Support them in handling school pressure, peer dynamics, and life changes with more confidence and emotional strength.

Reconnect with themselves
Therapy helps teens feel more secure in their identity, their values, and their ability to make decisions for themselves.

Your Teen Deserves to Feel Heard and Supported.

Teen years are hard enough—and they’re even harder when your teen feels misunderstood or alone in what they’re going through. Therapy gives them a consistent space to be themselves, work through challenges, and build lifelong emotional tools.
