Therapy for Teens: Our Approach
Watching your teen struggle with anxiety, self-doubt, or overwhelming emotions can be heartbreaking. You want to help, but sometimes, they shut you out or don’t know how to express what they’re feeling. That’s where therapy comes in. We create a safe, nonjudgmental space where teens can open up, process their emotions, and develop healthy coping skills. Our approach is warm, relatable, and tailored to their unique needs—helping them build confidence, manage stress, and navigate life’s challenges. Together, we’ll support your teen in feeling more secure, empowered, and understood. You don’t have to do this alone—we are here to help.
Getting started and finding the right therapist…
Finding the right therapist for your teen is important—you want someone they feel comfortable with, who truly understands their struggles, and who can help them grow. Therapy isn’t just about talking; it’s about building trust, learning real-life coping skills, and feeling heard without judgment. Our teen therapists take a down-to-earth, approachable style that helps teens feel safe opening up while providing the tools they need to manage anxiety, stress, and self-doubt. Every teen is different, which is why we tailor therapy to their unique personality and needs. If your teen has been struggling, let’s find a way forward together.

Questions about Insurance?
Using out of network benefits to help cover the cost of therapy can be complicated, frustrating and honestly quite discouraging-but it doesn’t have to be. To make the process seamless, we use Mentaya, a platform that helps clients get money back on therapy—without the hassle of filing claims themselves.
How does it work?
-
Sign up for Mentaya and we will confirm your out of network benefits for you- just fill out this form.

Schedule your complimentary consultation with your preferred therapist. During the consultation call we will go over your benefits and an estimated cost of your reimbursement for our services.
Not sure who your preferred therapist is? No problem! Fill out the contact form here and let us know a little bit about you and what you are looking for. From there, we’ll guide you in finding the therapist who’s the best fit for your needs.

After your session,
✔ We submit claims for you—you don’t have to do a thing.
✔ Mentaya handles the reimbursement process with your insurance.
✔ If your insurance offers out-of-network benefits, you’ll receive reimbursement directly.(Note: Mentaya charges a small fee for claim processing, handling any paperwork required, dealing with denials, and calling insurance companies, but only if you receive reimbursement.) It's risk-free: They guarantee claims are successfully submitted, or a full refund of their fees.
