How Counseling Can Help Your Teen
As a parent, it can become frustrating when your teenager struggles to express their emotions and feelings. The truth is, some things might be too difficult for the teenager to talk about.
Using techniques such as play therapy, art therapy, and family therapy together, we can assist the teenager in developing prosocial play skills, effective communication skills, and emotion regulation skills. Utilizing play techniques and artistic expression help to foster a stronger sense of self-awareness and self-esteem, something we promote here at Sano Counseling.
Sano Counseling Can Help Your Teen
Our teen therapists at Sano Counseling focus on modeling a secure attachment relationship by working with the parents and family. We focus on parent-teenager interaction to foster a sense of safety and understanding between the two parties.
We also work to identify maladaptive coping strategies through teen counseling, redirecting towards adaptive coping skills.
We also offer family sessions, which are focused around not telling the teenager or teen that they are “wrong,” but instead practicing the expression of validation while also maintaining parental role.
