Teen Counseling

Parenting through the teen years brings both joy and uncertainty. As your teen faces new pressures, friendships, and identity changes, it’s natural to feel unsure of how to help. At Happy Tails Counseling, we offer a compassionate space where your teen can grow in confidence and emotional balance—while you gain peace of mind knowing they’re supported.

Our Unique Approach

At Happy Tails Counseling, we meet teens where they are—through genuine conversation, validation, and connection. Sessions are a space to slow down, reflect, and make sense of what’s really going on beneath the surface. We use evidence-based strategies to help with anxiety, mood, focus, and confidence, while weaving in each teen’s unique interests—music, art, sports, or humor—to make counseling feel authentic and meaningful. With optional sessions with Archie, our canine co-counselor, sessions offer an extra a sense of calm and comfort that helps teens open up in their own way.
