About

As a therapist who works closely with adolescents, one of the most common questions I hear from parents is: “How do I know if this is just being a teenager — or if my teen actually needs therapy?” The truth is, adolescence is a time of big emotions, shifting identities, and growing independence. Moodiness, withdrawal, and irritability can be part of normal development. But there’s a difference between temporary growing pains and a teen who is quietly struggling. If you’re wondering whether your teen needs therapy, that curiosity alone is worth honoring. You don’t have to wait for things to get worse to seek support.
