What We Treat: Expert Outpatient Care for Teen Mental Health & Behavioral Issues
Anxiety
Anxiety is a normal human emotion that we all feel. However, young people are increasingly developing anxiety disorders which are greatly impacting their daily lives at home and at school. We support young people with skills based group and individual work to overcome these challenges.
Depression
Depression is one of the more commonplace mental illnesses in the country, with some estimates stating that as much as 15% of youth aged 12 - 17 nationally are affected by major depression. Young people today continue to struggle with depression which can greatly impact their quality of life.
ADHD
ADHD is one of the most commonly diagnosed conditions today. It can present in a variety of ways and lead to difficulties with concentration, organization, and schoolwork for young people. Medications and behavioral therapeutic work can help young people with ADHD to improve their mood and overall functioning.
Marijuana Use
Marijuana use has been on the rise amongst young people in Massachusetts following legalization. With risk perception dropping, and the rise of vaping technology, use seems to increase in high schools and middle schools in Dedham and elsewhere. Marijuana use often leads to and exacerbates anxiety and depression.
