Are You Struggling With Teen Violence?

Home » Areas of Specialty » Teen Violence » Page 4

Teen violence includes physical harm or threats of harm or violence among youth and adolescents. Teen violence can occur in the school setting, in the context of gangs, within a family, or even among peers. Teen violence can lead to trouble with the law, physical injury, and emotional disturbances.

Available Treatment Options

If one or two teens are particularly prone to violence, they may benefit from individual counseling to address any issues that lead to outbursts. Violent teens may also benefit from group counseling or inpatient programs, where they can receive more timely care and treatment for their behavioral issues from therapists and counselors. Treatment may include medication, counseling for aggression, and even mindfulness techniques that help youth cope with stress.

The relationship is where the deepest connection on a psychological level between the client and therapist occurs. The unconditionally positive perspective the therapist holds towards the client forges a bond over time between client and therapist that opens up the possibility for trust,...

( English | español ) I believe that we all have the ability to grow and change into who we want to become.

I believe that therapy should take into considerations the needs of the client and that there is no “one size fits all” approach to therapy. Given the proper time and guidance, healing a...
