SUPPORTIVE THERAPY FOR teenage boys in Crozet/Charlottesville va

Discover a supportive ally for your son’s emotional journey.

It is so hard to see your teenage son struggle. Whether it is anxiety, depression, ADHD, anger, or any other emotional difficulty, we are here to help. We see ourselves as a member of you and your son’s team and we hope to partner with you in helping them work through whatever is getting in his way as well as improve his overall emotional well-being.

Based on what your child and family needs, our roles range from more of a mentor/coach, a family therapist, or an insight-oriented or trauma-based therapist. We tell our clients we are able to help them improve in any areas of social, emotional, and/or family life where they may struggle.

Therapy will look different based on the age of your teenager and what they are working on. For most, therapists will use a combination of meeting with the teen and their parents together, working with the teen alone, and in-session check-ins with parents. Please ask us any questions about our process.

You can find a therapist online by using our search tool and booking a session. You can also contact our Client Care Coordinators to find a personalized match.

With all these changes, it’s no wonder why he might feel like yelling one second and crying for no reason the next. Along with all the new things happening in his life, new stresses and worries also come up about family, friends, school, his body, and his future.

It shouldn’t be a surprise that signs of mental health conditions often emerge during this developmental stage. About half of all people who experience a mental health condition in their lifetime begin experiencing symptoms before the age of 14. Unfortunately teens and their family members often do not notice them until several years later.

The challenge is determining whether certain behavior is normal/typical or a symptom of mental health.
