Perfectionism can overwhelm teens, especially when it comes to schoolwork. Constantly striving for flawless results can lead to stress, anxiety, and even avoidance of tasks. Therapy helps teens reframe their thinking, focusing on progress instead of perfection. Through tools like EMDR and practical strategies, teens can learn to manage school-related pressure and embrace their efforts, not just the outcome. If your teen is struggling with perfectionism, therapy offers a supportive space to help them thrive academically and emotionally.

Dealing with anxiety and low self-esteem as a teenager can feel overwhelming and isolating. Providing structured, actionable steps at home can help teens gain the skills they need to cope with anxiety and improve their self-esteem.
