A lot of things can get in the way of a teen feeling safe and leaning into therapy. Teens need honesty and directness about what confidentiality means for them. They need to be able to have a say in their goals. They need to know that they are WHOLE individuals and deserve as much respect as an adult. And they need to know that it is their choice to move forward in therapy or not. I can offer your family, and your teen, an experience that honors all of this (especially their trust) and provide ways to support them in living their best life.
