Our mission at Teen Therapy Center is to help your teen and your family live happier lives. We help sort through all types of crises from painful, everyday struggles to traumatic, life-changing events – all of which can paralyze families from moving forward and can be the cause of a great divide amongst family members. We understand how past decisions, personality differences, or unhealthy (emotional or physical) habits can be challenging to overcome without the guidance of a counselor. We don't want to just help you... our mission is to help you help yourself so you can continue to live your life at its best. We are a team of counselors who really love our jobs. Our education, training, experience and most importantly, our passion for this profession allow us to create a unique healing environment. Our goal is to compassionately develop healthy, trusting, therapeutic relationships with our clients. This generates opportunities to address personal growth through many different creative techniques. We know how to speak your kid's language whether your child is four, fourteen or twenty-four. We understand how kids think. Our extensive training, diverse education, and wide range of clinical experience all influence how we interact with our clients. We can help your teenager and we can help your family. While a big focus of what we do is helping teenagers, we treat clients of all ages. We are effective counselors because we understand where teenagers come from, where they currently are and where they are going – developmentally, emotionally, and psychologically. That understanding also grants us the ability to connect well with younger children along with young adults. We also work with grown adults who struggle with the stresses of careers, kids, personal issues, and, well... life. We often spend time with the entire family to help them learn how to work together to strengthen emotional bonds, improve communication or perhaps grieve the loss of a loved one.
