Teen Counseling at The People Place

Teens don't need to be performed at. They need a person in their corner who isn't their parent and isn't a school counselor and won't tell on them for the small stuff. Our teen clinicians are trained for that, comfortable with that, and good at it.

Who this is for

  • Teens 12-18 who are anxious, depressed, or shut down
  • Teens dealing with friend-group drama, bullying, social media spirals
  • Teens working through identity questions
  • Teens whose parents are worried and want help

What we help with

  • Anxiety and panic
  • Depression and self-harm urges
  • Identity exploration
  • Self-esteem and body image
  • Family conflict
  • School pressure and burnout

Common questions

Honest answers.

Will my parents know what I say?
Mostly no. In Arkansas, teen sessions are largely confidential. Your therapist will be clear about the few exceptions (immediate safety) up front. Progress is shared in general terms with parents without specific details.
What if I don't want to be there?
A lot of teens start that way and end up appreciating having a person in their corner. Try three sessions before deciding.
