Virtual Therapy: Teens

Virtual Therapy for Teens

How do I know if Online Therapy is right for my Teen?


what to expect

As we already know, our teens were practically born into the digital world making online therapy an easy fit.

You might be worried that your teen is missing out on the in-person connection a traditional therapy setting provides. But actually, we’ve found that by remotely joining teens in their own space, they’re often more comfortable, open and engaged in the therapy process.

Our therapists will use a combination of verbal communication, arts & crafts and online tools to meet your therapy goals.

By taking advantage of the online therapy space, we can:

  • Use a digital whiteboard to draw, write and process thoughts and feelings.

  • Watch a video together that’s relevant to their world right now.

  • Play an online game.

Flexible scheduling

Your teen probably already has easy access to a phone, tablet or PC and they don’t need any assistance from you!

This means your teen can schedule their online therapy appointment at a time that’s convenient for them, regardless of your own schedule and ability to provide transportation.

location

Our therapists are licensed to provide therapy in Maryland, DC, and/or Virginia. As per telehealth regulations, you must be physically located where your therapist is licensed at the time of your session.
