Joe H. says, "I sought out Lesley for help with anger issues four years ago and she has vastly improved the way that I move through life. Lesley genuinely cares about me. During our sessions, she and gently pushes me out of my comfort zone in a non-judgmental way. Deep emotional work with Lesley has resulted in me becoming more present and aware of my fears, and taught me how to feel these emotions rather than push them away (which previously lead to my anger). She gave me the tools to deal with my emotions and showed me how my past experiences shape my current reality. Though initially resistant to therapy, I evolved so that I now look forward to my sessions with Lesley. I know that I will be challenged and that I will leave each session feeling better than when I arrived. Highly Recommend!" Read more

Leo H. says, "I took on hypnotherapy to improve myself which would in-effect improve my life. Before I would be held back by stress which wouldn't allow me to improve myself. With Farzin, I felt free to share anything without judgement and I was able to let go of what held me back from being my best self. In taking on the hypnotherapy work, I was able to expand my compassion and ability to forgive which set me free mentally, physically, and spiritually. From this freedom, I gained a newfound motivation to reach my goals. Now, life flows better and I feel a sense of self-improvement everyday. Stress doesn't hold me back! I see that anything is possible for me in life and that everything that happens to me is a gift. I know this hypnosis work serves me in a positive way because I say so! Here, I will be unwrapping presents for the rest of my life. To anyone who's wondering if hypnotherapy will help, please know from me that hypnosis will make you fly in life and Farzin will help you overcome your issues. Hypnosis with Farzin is the turning point towards your best life." Read more

Your Teen Therapists questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Thervo.

How much does therapy for teens cost?

Therapy for teens costs $60 to $150 per session on average if not covered by insurance, with prices in major metropolitan areas like New York and Los Angeles reaching up to $250 per session. Most sessions last 45 to 60 minutes, and prices depend on the therapist's experience. Some therapists offer packages of 10 to 12 sessions at a slightly discounted rate, while others charge sliding-scale rates based on your income.

The average cost of therapy with insurance is $20 to $60 per session for the copay. Check your insurance plan for coverage details.

Online therapy costs $50 to $110 per week for a membership plan. Online therapy websites pair you with a licensed therapist or counselor who provides therapy via text messaging, email, online chat, or live video sessions. Some teens prefer online therapy over in-person therapy because it uses communication formats they're already familiar and comfortable with.

What can a therapist for teens help with?

A therapist can help your teen with emotional and behavioral challenges relating to:

  • Low self-esteem
  • Academic struggles
  • Family problems
  • Friendships and social challenges
  • Gender or sexual identity
  • Bullying
  • Drug or alcohol use
  • Depression, anxiety, or stress
  • ADHD, OCD, or eating disorders

Teenagers often face problems they can't cope with alone. A therapist can provide guidance, teach your teen coping techniques and problem-solving skills, and give your teen a safe place to express their feelings.

When should a teenager see a therapist?

Consider taking your teen to see a therapist if you notice any of these signs:

  • Changes in eating or hygiene
  • Behaviors or emotions that interfere with their ability to function socially or academically
  • Isolation or withdrawal from friends, family, or favorite activities
  • Feelings of sadness, anxiety, worry, hopelessness, anger, or irritability
  • Sudden drop in school grades
  • Trouble concentrating or remembering things
  • Destructive behavior
  • Self-destructive activity, such as hair-pulling, skin-picking, or cutting

Can a therapist diagnose ADHD, depression, autism, or other conditions in my teen?

A licensed therapist can give a mental health diagnosis in all states except Maine Indiana. However, the therapist typically must refer your teen to a psychiatrist or other medical doctor if the condition requires medication. Schedule an appointment for your teen with a therapist near you if you have concerns about ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, or other mental health conditions.

How often should my teenager go to therapy?

Most therapists recommend starting with one session per week. However, severe issues may require more frequent sessions in the early stages. After your teen's first session, the therapist will recommend a schedule that will provide the most benefit.

How long does therapy for teenagers take to work?

The timeframe for therapy varies depending on your teenager's current state, personal experiences, and the challenges they are facing. Every teenager is unique. Some issues require only a few sessions, while others require more extensive treatment.

Some teens may experience improvement within a few weeks of beginning therapy, while others may require several months or more of treatment. You and your teen should discuss their progress with the therapist at regular intervals to determine if more sessions are needed or any changes should be made to the treatment plan.

How can I choose the best therapist for my teenager?

When seeking therapy or mental health care for your teenager, follow these tips:

  • Choose a therapist who specializes in treating adolescents.
  • Ask your medical provider for recommendations.
  • Read therapist reviews on Thervo and Google.
  • Confirm the therapist is licensed to practice in your area.
  • Schedule an initial session with the therapist to make sure their personality and treatment style is a good fit for your teen.

What questions should I ask therapists?

Ask these questions to help you find a therapist who is the best fit for your teen:

  • How long have you been practicing?
  • What are your certifications?
  • Do you specialize in therapy for teens?
  • What therapy style or modalities do you practice?
  • What is your philosophy as a therapist?
  • What does a typical session look like?
  • Are you more directive or guiding as a counselor?
  • Do you give your clients homework or reading assignments?
  • How do you determine success in therapy?
  • What is your success rate in treating past clients with these issues?
  • Will you see my teen if they run into problems between sessions?
