Adolescent Counseling for a Brighter Future
Navigating the teenage years can be a tumultuous journey, marked by various challenges that affect both adolescents and their families. Adolescents may grapple with emotional turmoil, peer pressure, academic stress, and a sense of identity exploration. These challenges can lead to feelings of confusion and isolation. For parents, understanding and supporting adolescents during this pivotal phase can be a significant concern. We recognize that these struggles are unique and transformative, and we're here to provide guidance and support.
There is hope within the complexities of adolescence. We believe in the resilience and potential for growth that exists in every young person. While adolescence may bring its share of difficulties, we've seen countless teens overcome these challenges and emerge as more confident and self-assured individuals. There's a path to a future where adolescents can thrive, find their voice, and navigate life's ups and downs with resilience and determination.

What it looks like to work with your therapist at metanoia therapy...
When we work together you can expect a partner. This means we will not sit across from you for an hour with head-nods and smiles, we will not offer lectures, and we will not solve your problems by telling you ‘here’s where it went wrong and here’s how you fix it’. But, we will offer compassion, transparency, authenticity, and support.
We strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental, supportive, and honest space where challenging things can be discussed and room for growth and change is available.
At Metanoia Therapy you will get a therapist who is genuine, honest, willing to push with you towards your goals, and will sit with you in the discomfort and laugh with you in the silly. We want to be your partner as you figure out your journey and as your journey continues to transform.
It would be our honor to work with you and help you realize your true self and happiness.
“The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.”

Do you feel stuck in life, looking at your past with wishfulness, longing, or perhaps regret, and when you glance towards your future all you seem to get is blur, confusion, and wonder? Are you noticing difficulty dealing with the changes in your life?
Are you struggling to maintain relationships that feel fulfilling? Do you want to pursue a relationship, but a constant fear keeps coming up in your mind telling you you’re not worthy? Do you notice recurring problems between multiple relationships? Do you feel stuck in a relationship that you don’t know how to end?
Does it feel like you “should” be happy because things in your life are okay, but you just seem to have trouble finding joy?
Do your feelings feel like a roller-coaster ride that you just can’t get off? Do you find yourself shutting down your feelings to avoid them from getting too big?
Does it feel like there is so much to do, but its hard to fit it all in - school/ work, time with friends, activities. How is it possible to do it all and do it well? Some days it just feels easier to stay in bed and ignore it all.
Do you find yourself avoiding situations, people, or conversations because they make you feel anxious?
