Teen Relational Concerns
TEEN COUNSELING SERVICES
TEEN COUNSELING CAN OFFER ASSISTANCE AND RELIEF
Relationships are incredibly important to teens. Recent advances in texting and social media have served to highlight the value teens place on peer relationships. Healthy relationships with parents, siblings, and authority figures can increase a teen’s ability to navigate healthy peer relationships. When a teen is struggling with a family or peer relationship, it can lead to a range of emotions such as depression, anxiety, isolation, alcohol/drug use, self-harm, and other concerning feelings and behaviors. Often times, counseling is an excellent solution in helping an adolescent gain an understanding of relationships and their impact on thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Journeys Counseling Center is well equipped to help teens understand and grow in relationships.
