Teens
Counseling Young People in Omaha
In many ways, today’s adolescents have it harder than ever before. The stress created by the pressures of school, family, media and peers can be overwhelming. Here at CARITAS Counseling, we go above and beyond to give your child a safe place to be themselves and find healing.
Inner Strength
"I am fearfully and wonderfully made. His works are wonderful! I know that full well!" Psalm 139:14.
Unfortunately, many youth do not know or believe this to be true. Instead, pressure from the media, judgement from peers, family stress, childhood trauma and unmet expectations from parents, adults and friends cause adolescents to question their uniqueness, strength and beauty.
Share Experiences
At CARITAS Counseling, we seek to meet each teenager exactly where they are at. She understands that in order for a youth to open up and trust anyone (let alone an adult), they need to feel heard and valued. We use talk, art and play to help each teenager to explore her feelings, share her experience, and voice her hope.
We Work Together
In this environment, teenagers are given space to work through the issues that first brought them to counseling. Jennifer is skilled at helping teenagers address and work through
depression, insecurity and self-doubt, grief, loneliness, anxiety and family and peer issues.
