New Dawn Counseling
Counseling Services for Teens
Let's Be Real
Hey there! Can we talk about how hard the teenage years can be? Various changes mentally, physically, and emotionally; social media and the comparison trap; peer pressure; puberty; hormones; and possibly, your first romantic relationships. There’s so much going on during these years! It can feel overwhelming, confusing, and isolating. You might be processing feelings you’ve never felt before, or have questions about your future that leave you feeling anxious and scared. Please know, this is completely normal and you're not the only one experiencing it. Adolescence is a tough time, take it from someone who knows.
You're Not Alone. Help Is Available.
If you’re struggling with anything similar to what I’ve mentioned, now is the perfect time to start or get back into counseling. Working with a therapist can help you make sense of this stage of life. You don’t need to navigate all of these questions and uncertainties alone. When you're ready, contact me to schedule a free 15-minute consultation by email (cathygilbert@newdawncounselingpnw.com), text (425-470-3911), or simply click the link below and complete the online form.

Walk and Talk for Teens
Walk-and-talk is a form of psychotherapy while walking outdoors in public places. New Dawn Counseling offers walk-and-talk sessions as an optional treatment modality. Some clients enjoy the experience of movement while talking or feel more comfortable talking side-by-side, rather than sitting face-to-face. Walk-and-talk sessions can be used intermittently or regularly, and may be discontinued at any time.
