Teens: Ages 12-18
Utilizing our family system and experiential approach, we support adolescents (ages 12-18) in navigating independence, identity development, and social challenges. Through a collaborative approach, our individual coach works alongside our parent coach to foster open communication, strengthen family relationships, and provide the structure and guidance needed during this critical stage of growth.
What We Do
All services are individualized for every family, but will include:
Individual Coaching for the Teen
Parent Coaching
Family Sessions
Support Outside of Scheduled Sessions (phone, text, video, etc)
Collaboration with Other Providers (medical providers, school professionals, prior placement, tutors, other care providers)
Who We Serve
Many of our clients in this age range experience the following:
School anxiety
Social or general anxiety
Peer relationships
Learning difficulties
School avoidance or refusal
Technology overuse or misuse
Low self esteem
Low self confidence

How We Do It

When Wonder Makes Sense
When traditional talk therapy isn’t the right fit, has stagnated, there is lack of engagement, or needs real world application
When family engagement would be helpful to the process
When needing more intensive services
After or during intensive outpatient programming (IOP)
Transitioning home from out of home placements (wilderness, therapeutic boarding schools, residential treatment centers, or hospitalizations)
“It was a complete and total shift away from how she previously viewed therapy. She saw [her therapist] as her friend and mentor, someone to be fully trusted, and not simply someone she was required to sit across from for 45 minutes every week.”
— Former Wonder Parent
