When to Seek Professional Help for Your Teen

If you’re concerned that your teen is struggling to manage their emotions and is beginning to lose control of their behavior it is time to seek professional help from a counselor specially trained to work with adolescents. Likewise, if you as a parent are feeling defeated, out of control, or inadequately equipped with the necessary tools to support, guide, and discipline your child effectively during this season of life then it’s time to seek help from a mental health professional.

Katrina has been the most consistent, competent, honest, and compassionate therapist I’ve had the pleasure of working with. My mental health journey has led me and my family through the exhausting process of finding qualified help for my severe trauma and life-threatening disordered thoughts.  She has helped me and my family through many dark and chaotic swings of bipolar disorder.  We are forever grateful that I was referred to her

“…competent, honest, and compassionate therapist…”

“I have been coming to Katrina Reese for a couple years now. I will honestly say I wouldn’t be here now if it weren’t for her, as I have a whole new outlook. She is an excellent therapist if you are looking for someone results oriented. The whole EWCC staff was very courteous and helpful, and scheduling has been a breeze. I would highly recommend EWCC to anyone, especially people dealing with anxiety and depression.”

The Questions We Receive the Most

Frequently Asked Questions
about Individual Counseling at EWCC

Warning signs include drastic changes in personality, declining grades, social withdrawal, risky behaviors, or comments about self-harm. If you’re concerned about your teen’s emotional well-being, it’s best to consult a professional.
While we maintain confidentiality, we involve parents in the therapeutic process as appropriate. We’ll discuss general progress and provide guidance on how to support your teen at home.

The duration of therapy varies depending on the individual needs of each teen. Some may benefit from short-term interventions, while others may require longer-term support.

Here are some helpful tips of things to share during your therapy session: Any distressing emotions or experiences you’ve had, a conflict in a relationship, a problem you’re not sure how to solve, anything that feels stressful or overwhelming from the past or present, negative thoughts you struggle with or behaviors you’d like to change

It’s common for teens to be initially reluctant. Our therapists are skilled at building rapport and creating a comfortable environment. Many teens who start out resistant end up finding therapy beneficial and engaging.
