Teen Counseling

Jackson and Greater Wyoming

Is your teen struggling with anxiety, mood swings, or self-esteem issues? Adolescence is a time of enormous change—physically, emotionally, and socially. It’s no surprise that many teens feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, or lost in the process. Teen therapy offers them a space to be heard, understood, and guided through these challenges in a safe and non-judgmental environment.

​

At Concannon Family Therapy, we support teens in developing healthy coping skills, stronger self-awareness, and emotional resilience. With over 20 years of experience in the mental health field, Tom Concannon, MFT, brings expertise and empathy to every session, helping teens (and their families) navigate this pivotal stage of life with care.

​

What Is Teen Therapy?

​

Teen therapy is individual counseling specifically adapted for adolescents ages 12–18. It addresses emotional, behavioral, social, and academic challenges, helping teens learn to manage stress, express themselves, and develop a stronger sense of self.

​

Common reasons teens seek therapy include:

• Anxiety or panic attacks
   

• Depression or withdrawal
   

• School or peer issues
   

• Social media stress and comparison
   

• Identity and self-esteem struggles
   

• Anger, defiance, or risky behavior
   

• Grief, trauma, or family changes
   

Teen therapy is also beneficial when your teen is not in crisis but needs a trusted adult outside the family to talk to.

​

What to Expect from Teen Counseling

​

Therapy sessions are tailored to meet teens where they are—whether they're quiet and guarded or eager to talk. Tom provides:

• A welcoming, teen-friendly atmosphere
   

• Evidence-based strategies that promote emotional growth
   

• Tools for stress management and communication
   

• Family involvement as needed, with your teen’s comfort in mind
   

Sessions can be held in-person at our Jackson, WY office or virtually to support your family’s schedule.
