At Wellspring, we understand the unique challenges facing teens and young adults today. Our specialized therapy services are designed to support your child through this critical developmental period and address a wide range of emotional, behavioral, and mental health concerns.
Teen and Young Adult Therapy is designed to address the unique challenges adolescents and young adults face as they navigate this critical developmental period. Significant transitions mark these years and can often be accompanied by feelings of anxiety, stress, depression, or self-doubt. Therapy provides a safe space for young people to explore these feelings, develop healthy coping strategies, and work on improving self-esteem. It also helps in managing anger, compulsive behaviors, and other emotional difficulties. Therapy can empower teens and young adults to understand themselves better, build their identity, and improve their mental health.
At Wellspring, we prioritize creating a safe, therapeutic environment where our younger clients feel seen and empowered. Our team comprises diverse, experienced, licensed therapists who provide professional and expert care. We offer a variety of therapeutic approaches tailored to meet the needs of our clients:

The duration of therapy varies depending on the individual’s needs and progress. Some teens may benefit from short-term treatment (10-14 sessions), while others may need longer-term support. We regularly assess progress and adjust the treatment plan accordingly.
Confidentiality is crucial in teen therapy. However, there are limits to confidentiality, such as if there’s a risk of harm to the teen or others. We discuss these limits clearly at the beginning of therapy and involve parents as appropriate, always prioritizing the teen’s well-being and trust.
It’s common for teens to be hesitant about therapy. Try having an open, nonjudgmental conversation about their concerns. Offer to attend the first session with them or suggest a trial period. Emphasize that therapy is a safe space for teens to express themselves and get support.
In these situations, we encourage parents to start with Wellspring’s parent coaching services to learn how to best help their teen or young adult.
Online therapy can be as effective as in-person therapy for many teens, especially those comfortable with technology. It offers convenience and may feel more comfortable for some. We assess each teen’s needs to determine if online therapy is appropriate.
We recognize the importance of cultural sensitivity in therapy. Our diverse team of therapists is trained to respect and incorporate cultural considerations into treatment. We encourage open dialogue about cultural factors that may influence the therapeutic process.
