If Your Teen Seems to be Struggling, Counselling Can Help
The teen years are full of change—a time of self-discovery, and sometimes, overwhelming challenges. As a parent, it can be difficult to know when to step in or how best to help. If your teen seems to be struggling, counselling can be a powerful source of support—for them, and for you.
Signs Your Youth Might Benefit from Counselling:
-
Ongoing feelings of sadness, anxiety, or self-esteem
-
Withdrawing from friends or family
-
Drop in school performance or motivation
-
Risk-taking behaviours or substance use
-
Trouble regulating emotions or managing anger
Teens may not always say what they’re feeling, but their behaviour tells the story. Counselling is a safe, confidential space where your teen can talk openly and build tools to handle life's challenges.
