Adolescent Psychotherapy can greatly assist teens in understanding themselves through their process of identity formation, while fostering confidence and self-esteem. The individuation and forming of a young adult’s own identity can imply a vexing time for both the adolescent and their parents. This process of push and pull between teen and parent leads to a lack of understanding, a breakdown in communication and escalating frustration.
Often teens need assistance through their transition from childhood to adulthood, which would assist them in emotional regulation, gaining insight, formulating problem-solving skills, improving communication and assisting in stress management and self-care.
