Teen/Young Adult Individual Therapy

Individual therapy can be incredibly beneficial for teenagers and young adults who are experiencing a variety of mental health issues. At Twin Cities Marriage and Family Therapy in Eden Prairie, MN, we provide a safe and confidential space for them to talk about their thoughts, feelings, and concerns without fear of judgment or criticism. It is our goal to help young people develop coping skills and strategies to manage stress, anxiety, and depression through teen/young adult individual therapy.

Signs of Depression in Teenagers

The teenage years are challenging, with many emotional and physical changes occurring all at once. Teens and young adults are prone to depression. Many teens admit during individual therapy that they have “thoughts of hurting myself” and other very concerning mental health issues. Some of the signs of depression in teens and young adults include:

• Persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, or helplessness
• Loss of interest in activities they used to enjoy
• Changes in appetite or sleep patterns
• Fatigue or lack of energy
• Difficulty concentrating or making decisions
• Withdrawal from friends and family
• Irritability or anger
• Physical symptoms such as headaches or stomachaches without a clear medical cause
• Thoughts of self-harm or suicide

If you notice any of these signs in a teenager, it’s essential to talk to them about how they’re feeling and connect them with a mental health professional if needed. Remember, depression is a treatable condition, and teens can recover and thrive with the right support. Individual therapy is a viable solution to give teens and young adults the tools to cope and overcome depression.
