Teen Therapy

Navigating the teenage years can be a challenging and transformative experience. It’s a time filled with emotional highs and lows, identity exploration, and significant life changes. Our teen therapy program is designed to provide a safe, supportive environment where adolescents can express themselves, build coping skills, and foster personal growth.

Why Teen Therapy?
Our Approach
What to Expect in Teen Therapy?
Taking the First Step

Understanding Emotions: Adolescents often face intense emotions and stress. Therapy helps them articulate these feelings, understand their triggers, and develop healthy coping mechanisms.

Building Resilience: Life’s challenges can be overwhelming. Through therapy, teens learn resilience, enabling them to face obstacles with confidence and optimism.

Improving Communication Skills: Therapy provides a space for teens to practice expressing themselves, improving their communication skills with peers and family.

Addressing Mental Health Concerns: Many teens experience anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. Early intervention through therapy can lead to better outcomes and a healthier future.

Exploring Identity: Adolescence is a crucial time for self-discovery. Therapy supports teens in exploring their identities, values, and beliefs in a non-judgmental setting.

At Open Mind Counselling, we employ a variety of therapeutic techniques tailored to meet the unique needs of each teen. Our compassionate and experienced therapists use evidence-based practices to foster a collaborative therapeutic relationship.​​

  • Individual Therapy: One-on-one sessions provide a private space for teens to explore their thoughts and feelings.

  • Family Therapy: Involving family members can enhance communication and strengthen relationships, creating a supportive home environment.

We understand that starting therapy can feel daunting. Our intake process is designed to be welcoming and straightforward, allowing teens to share at their own pace. Sessions typically focus on:

  • Identifying personal goals

  • Exploring feelings and behaviors

  • Developing coping strategies

  • Enhancing self-esteem and self-awareness

If you’re a parent seeking support for your teen, or a teenager looking to navigate life’s challenges, we’re here to help. Together, we can create a path toward healing and growth.
