This time of your life is full of change and transitions which can cause a lot of anxiety and stress. Teens are trying to figure out where they fit in, who they are, and how to be more self-reliant. . . while also navigating a world which places a lot of rules and limitations upon them. Friendship drama, family and relationship conflict, the pressure to excel, the fear (or excitement) of growing up can sometimes be too much. In addition, there are so many decisions about the future that need to be made. People often underestimate an adolescent’s ability to self-reflect and to think about issues on a deeper level. Therapy can help you sort things out and go forward in life, equipped with more confidence and better tools for managing difficult emotions and tough situations.
