Teen Behavioral Disorder Treatment
Teenage years can be a struggle for many. Pressures, such as, peer pressure, parental disharmony, religion, societal and familial expectations, gender roles, schoolwork, image, hormonal changes, ethnicity, and poverty may all lead to behavioral disorders and erratic actions and reactions.
Types of Behavioral Disorders
The most common symptom of teen behavior disorder is the teen’s defiance and the challenge of authority.
There are two main types of teen behavior disorders:
Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD) is where a teen is temperamental and refuses to accept responsibility for their behavior or actions.
Conduct disorder (CD) where in addition to the above mentioned symptoms, basic rights of others are violated by the teen.

Our Specialties
Group Therapy
Members meet regularly and are encouraged to discuss issues during interactions with their families and the therapist. Unbiased feedback is offered and confidentiality of all personal information shared is maintained. Group therapy is helpful because it provides a safe space for objective feedback and reflection.
Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT)
This therapy focuses on providing effective tools in order to handle all types of emotions, with a specific look at self and past relationships. Patients are encouraged to actively face their emotions, feelings, and fears and actively attempt to resolve uncomfortable issues, rather than avoiding them as may have been the easier route in the past.
Family Therapy
Family therapy involves the family and the family dynamic as key factors for the patient’s recovery and sustained wellness. A therapist may combine family therapy with any other therapy if necessary, stressing the role of open and honest communication and compassionate understanding between family members.
Play Therapy
Play therapy provides an understanding, safe and sympathetic environment for a teenager where he/she is provided with an opportunity to learn to cope up with their disorder and acquire new tools to modify negative behavioral patterns. Play therapy allows for unlimited exploration without any boundaries, encouraging the teen to express him/herself through the use of art, dance, storytelling, drama, role-play, or creative visualization. Through this healthy and unlimited exploration, teens become free to express themselves, become more self-aware and identify appropriate behavioral norms.
