Our therapists provide thoughtful, developmentally appropriate care for kids and teens who are struggling with anxiety, stress, and emotional overwhelm.
Who Teenage Anxiety Therapy Is For
Teen and child anxiety therapy may be a good fit if your child or teen is:
Frequently worried, tense, or fearful
Experiencing anxiety related to school, social situations, or performance
Avoiding activities, places, or people due to fear or overwhelm
Having trouble sleeping, concentrating, or relaxing
Showing physical symptoms like stomachaches or headaches with no medical cause
In need of a therapist for teens or kids with anxiety who feels supportive and approachable
Whether anxiety is new or something your child has been managing for years, therapy can help them feel safer, more confident, and better understood.
