Online Teen Therapy in Texas

Adolescent Trauma & Anxiety Therapy

You and your child used to communicate well when they were younger, but when they became a teen talking to them has been a challenge. You knew that raising a teen would come with its challenges, but it’s proven more difficult than expected.

The day-to-day routine becomes a hassle. Homework doesn’t get done, nor gets turned in on time. They aren’t making friends quite as easily, or they are getting into trouble consistently at school. Your teen comes home from school agitated or quiet, and they would love to go to their room for alone time. You try to make the connection with them, but it can be met with silence or short responses.

You and your spouse have talked about the options to help your teen, but your parenting approaches may be different. The parenting techniques used by your parents are not working with your child. Your partner takes a more hands-off approach, while you are focusing on discipline and structure. The uniformed parenting usually leads to arguments or even avoidance - neither of you feel supported in your roles as parents.

Your family has a lot of love, but you need more support in coming up with the best environment for your child.

Counseling is a next step to finding that environment where everyone can feel included, heard, and understood. Your teen will have a space to explore their feelings and thoughts when it can be hard for them to voice it. They can learn how to communicate effectively and to connect with themselves.
