Adolescent & Young Adult Therapy
Working hard is important, but there is something that matters even more:
Believing in yourself
~Harry Potter
Harry Potter’s message is just for YOU!
Your teenager (or young adult) is exhausted and overwhelmed. This is a far cry from what you envisioned for your child.
You’re trying to convince him/her that they are enough exactly how they are – even with little success to show for their efforts.
How did you get here? Your once-happy child has turned into a high anxiety young adult more focused on failures than successes.
If this sounds all too familiar to you, know that there is a way to help your child work through their disappointments. They can learn to enjoy their successes without any self-loathing.
Is it really possible to facilitate this type of transformation?
When I work with your child, I’ll first bring structure to their concerns. During our time together, we will tackle several areas of their life.
Establishing healthy ways to deal with stress without always feeling defeated is essential.
To be happy and successful, it’s important to identify what it means to your child to ‘be happy.’
We’ll work on positive problem-solving, so they can begin to see challenges and failures as opportunities. How to problem-solve so that their feelings are met without backlash is another area that is often overlooked – we’ll focus on this area, too.
Once we build a relationship…
We will address the inner thoughts that are holding them back from achieving what they want.
- How to address their worst critique…THEMSELVES.
- How to overcome the fear that is keeping them stuck.
- How to problem-solve, make decisions and take risk with confidence.
Very soon your child will feel empowered to move forward instead of discouraged and lost.
Help your child become a more confident individual who understands their worth and can navigate disappointment and failure more positively.
