The preadolescents and adolescents years are a time of significant growth and change – biologically, cognitively, and socially. Such changes can be hard to navigate for teens and their parents, especially those who have joined their families through adoption, navigating these changes while also understanding their unique identity and history can be particularly challenging. At Strong Family Roots, we understand the complexities of this journey and are here to provide empathetic and expert support for your teenager and your family.

Empowering Your Teen Through Individual Therapy

Through individual therapy, adolescents self-explore and identify their own values, better manage their emotions, and increase their self-esteem, autonomy, and sense of responsibility. Our therapy creates a safe and supportive environment for your teen to feel welcome, heard, and seen. Here, they can explore their feelings and thoughts about adoption, identity, belonging, connection, and learn effective strategies to cope with challenging situations and emotions.

Your Crucial Role: Staying Connected and Informed

Parents play a crucial role in their teen’s well-being. Within the legal limits of confidentiality, parent sessions will include discussions about general progress in therapy, sharing information about the teen’s development, difficulties, strengths, and changes at home. Our goal is to help you create an empathetic and nurturing relationship among all family members, fostering understanding and connection during these important years. We will also address topics such as open communication about adoption and supporting your teen’s evolving identity.

Our Adolescent Therapy Services Include:

• Individual Teen Sessions (45 minutes): Private therapy sessions tailored to your adolescent’s specific needs and goals.
• Parent Sessions (45 minutes): Regular sessions for parents to stay informed, gain insights into their teen’s progress, and develop strategies to support them at home.
