Therapy for Children & Teens

We see clients starting at age 12+!

Parenting a teenager comes with challenges. If your teen is struggling with emotions, acting out, withdrawing from family, or feeling overwhelmed, you’re not alone. Many parents feel frustrated and unsure how to help, especially when typical discipline or encouragement doesn’t seem to work.

At Crossland Counseling, we specialize in working with teens ages 12+ who may be experiencing:
✔ Emotional struggles – anxiety, depression, or frequent mood swings
✔ Behavioral challenges – defiance, school avoidance, or risky choices
✔ Family conflict – communication breakdowns and constant tension at home
✔ Major life changes – divorce, loss, or moving to a new school
✔ Social difficulties – bullying, loneliness, or low self-esteem
✔ Past trauma – abuse, neglect, or distressing experiences

How Therapy Can Help Your Teen

Therapy gives your teen a safe, judgment-free space to open up about what they’re going through. With the right support, they can:
🔹 Learn to express emotions in healthy ways instead of bottling them up or lashing out.
🔹 Gain tools to manage anxiety, stress, and overwhelming feelings.
🔹 Build confidence and improve relationships at home, school, and with friends.
🔹 Develop problem-solving skills to navigate tough situations more effectively.

Support for Parents & Families

When your teen struggles, the whole family feels it. Therapy isn’t just about helping teens—it’s also about helping parents understand, communicate, and support their child in a way that leads to real change. We offer guidance to parents who are feeling stuck, exhausted, or unsure how to reconnect with their teen.

Take the Next Step

If your teen’s struggles are affecting their happiness, school performance, or family relationships, therapy can help. You don’t have to navigate this alone.
