As a parent, fostering communication and connection with your teen is paramount. However, deciphering emotions, managing sudden outbursts, or just having a simple conversation can be like piecing together a complex puzzle. Adolescence is already a tough phase of life, and navigating the stress of academics, extracurriculars, and social pressures can make the whole journey even more complicated.

 

At Alamo Counseling, our dedicated therapists are adept at providing invaluable support, helping fortify confidence, self-esteem, life skills, and academic performance. We understand that fostering a harmonious family dynamic is crucial, which is why we're equally committed to supporting parents and enhancing family cohesiveness.

​

We integrate evidence-based approaches such as Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), which emphasizes finding a balance between acceptance and change, while building skills in mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness. Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) helps adolescents navigate and process painful experiences, managing their emotional responses and promoting healing and growth.

 

Within our safe and nurturing space teens are empowered to build meaningful connections and cultivate skills to thrive in both their personal and academic lives. We're here to support you, your child, and your family every step of the way.
