OCD and Anxiety Treatment for Adolescents in Tennessee
“I’m over it” is not in the vocabulary of an anxious mind.
It doesn't matter how many times your parents and friends tell you to “forget about it” or “chill out,” or how much you try to distract yourself, the worry thoughts are still there taking up head space.
Change is hard.
Adolescence is a time filled with so many changes-- from dealing with expectations at home, changes in your friend groups, to more pressure at school. It’s often during times of change and transition that anxiety and worry get worse.
If you’re having a hard time, know that it makes sense and there’s a way to get better.
Unsure if you really have an anxiety problem?
Everyone experiences anxiety from time to time, but if you find yourself avoiding doing things because you don’t want to feel anxious, therapy can help.
Do you reread your assignments to make sure they are just right? Or have you stopped caring about your school work, because it’s overwhelming to try to make it just right? Do you feel unmotivated or indifferent about things you used to get excited about?
If this sounds like you, then it may be worth scheduling a free 20 minute consultation call.

For Parents
A safe space.
In Therapy allows a safe space for your teen to talk about their worries, and identify ways they can grow. But it doesn’t just stop with your teen. You are a big part of the solution as well. To make lasting change, family change is often necessary.
Get on same page.
That’s why In Therapy includes parents and guardians in the therapy. Our hope is to help everyone in the family to be on the same page. In doing so, everyone will gain a clear understanding of OCD or anxiety, how to support your teen’s healthy sense of independence, knowledge about anxiety or OCD, how it affects your teen’s day-to-day, and what to do about it.
What to expect.
You can expect sessions to consist of parents and teen meeting together, parent only sessions, teen only sessions, or a mix of the two.
Ready to get started?
