We Treat a Wide Variety of Mental Health Conditions for Teens
Our expert staff has decades of experience in helping teenagers cope with and even overcome a wide variety of mental health conditions using modern, traditional, holistic and evidence-based therapies.
Anxiety Disorder
Approximately 13% of teens in the U.S. experience a major depressive episode each year, according to recent studies. Factors like social pressures, academic stress, and changes during adolescence contribute to these struggles. Our program offers personalized care in a supportive environment, equipping individuals with coping skills tailored to their unique anxiety experiences.
Depression
Around 31% of adolescents in the U.S. experience an anxiety disorder at some point during their lives. This includes conditions like generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, and panic disorder. Like depression, anxiety among teens is influenced by various factors, including social, academic, and environmental stressors.
Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar disorder in adolescents is a significant concern, affecting approximately 2.5% of this age group in the U.S. Symptoms can include extreme mood swings, ranging from manic episodes (elevated mood, increased energy) to depressive episodes (low mood, lack of energy). Diagnosis can be complex, as these symptoms may overlap with other disorders, such as depression or ADHD. Early intervention and proper treatment are crucial for managing the condition effectively. Our experienced clinical team is here to help.
OCD
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) affects about 1-2% of adolescents in the U.S. This disorder is characterized by persistent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and repetitive behaviors (compulsions) that individuals feel compelled to perform. OCD can significantly impact daily functioning and quality of life. Early diagnosis and treatment, which may include cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and medication, are essential for helping adolescents manage their symptoms effectively.
PTSD
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) affects around 3-6% of adolescents in the U.S. It can develop after experiencing or witnessing traumatic events, such as violence, accidents, or natural disasters. Symptoms may include flashbacks, avoidance of reminders of the trauma, negative changes in mood, and heightened arousal.
Early intervention is crucial, and effective treatments include trauma-focused cognitive-behavioral therapy (TF-CBT) and other therapeutic approaches.
