Adolescent counseling is a specialized form of counseling for teenagers aged 12 to 18, addressing their unique needs during this stage of development. It focuses on emotional, social, and psychological difficulties faced by adolescents.Key differences from counseling adults include considerations of their developmental stage, involvement of parents, emphasis on peer relationships, addressing educational concerns, improving parent-child communication, and managing confidentiality and consent. However, counseling approaches should be tailored to meet the individual's needs, regardless of age.
