Adolescent Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps adolescents understand and accept their inner emotions. ACT therapists can help teens use a deeper understanding of their emotional challenges in making a commitment to moving forward in a positive way.

"The best and most beautiful things in this world cannot be seen or even heard—they must be felt with the heart.”

- Helen Keller

Dialectical Behavior Therapy

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) can be used to treat older adolescents who have chronic suicidal feelings/thoughts, engage in intentionally self-harmful behaviors, or have Borderline Personality Disorder. DBT emphasizes taking responsibility for one's problems and helps people examine how they deal with conflict and intense negative emotions.

Family Therapy

Family Therapy focuses on helping a family function in more positive and constructive ways by exploring patterns of communication and providing support and education. Family therapy sessions can include adolescents along with parents, siblings, and grandparents.
