Depression

According to the National Institute on Mental Health, Depression affects  13% of 12 to 17-year-olds teens.

Adolescence brings new schools and schedules, new fears, loss of friendships, new pressures, more responsibility, and changing bodies and emotions. First presentations of mental health issues often occur during times of transition.

Anxiety

32% of 12 to 17-year-olds suffer from Anxiety (NIMH).

Amongst mental health symptoms and periods of change, teens and their parents may experience breakdowns in communication and functioning, leading families to feel frustrated and lost.

ADHD

9% of 12 to 17-year-olds experience ADHD (NIMH).

ADHD affects attention,  organization, impulsivity, hyperactivity, emotions,  executive functions and motivation. What looks like oppositional behavior or teens purposefully being “bad” may actually be undiagnosed ADHD.

Trauma

Teenagers tend to fluctuate between independence and insecurity after a distressing or traumatic event. Moreover, teens who are deeply upset by a traumatic event may not share their feelings with their parents.
