Teen Counseling in Taos and Online throughout New Mexico

Are you a parent or guardian looking for therapy for their teen? We wrote this page to help teens, go here for information about getting counseling for your teen written just for you.

Being a teenager is a lot of things. It can be awesome one minute and awful in the next. It’s the in-between before so called “adulthood” and the in-between sometimes sucks.

Most teens seeking counseling feel lost in life on some level, unsure of how to find their way. Perhaps you can relate. Maybe you feel like you just can’t wait to get out of school and do what you want while also feeling overwhelmingly hopeless.

Stuck in the in-between, feeling a lot of everything all the time, you may feel out of control.

Ever experience something like this:

  • you feel lonely, even when you are with others
  • you lack motivation to do anything
  • you worry all day
  • you feel like you are wandering through life, purposeless?

If these sound true for you, we want you to know that in our society, we don’t talk about it very much, but it’s totally normal to feel this way. Help can provide you the support and encouragement you need to face the challenges ahead.

Even if you don’t believe you deserve care, you do. You deserve happiness and the opportunity to take care of yourself.

How Counseling Works

Counseling consists of 60-minute, one-on-one sessions that help you work through your concerns. In addition to listening, your therapist will ask questions and guide you towards solutions. They play an active role. Here’s how it will work step-by-step:

1. First, your therapist will provide a safe, accepting space so that you will feel comfortable sharing your struggles with them.
2. With your permission, your therapist will reach out to parents/guardians for additional details regarding their hopes for your in counseling.
3. Through hearing your story, your therapist will start to get a picture of what your challenges are.
4. Next your therapist will start by helping you with immediate concerns like managing difficult emotions and challenging life situations.
5. You will also work together to discover what your goals are in therapy and in life.
6. Keeping your unique goals in mind, together you’ll figure out what’s needed to help you reach them.
5. Over the course of your sessions, you will start making progress towards the life you desire.

Research shows that counseling can positively change your thinking, beliefs, emotions, and behaviors. It can help you get past whatever is holding you back.
