Teen Anxiety & Depression Therapy in Truckee

Anxiety and depression can affect every part of a teen's life. While some teens feel constantly worried, overwhelmed, or on edge, others may struggle with sadness, low motivation, irritability, emotional numbness, or a loss of interest in activities they once enjoyed.

Many young people work hard to hide what they are experiencing internally. They continue showing up to school, sports, and social activities while privately feeling exhausted, disconnected, or overwhelmed.

Over time, anxiety and depression can impact sleep, concentration, academic performance, friendships, family relationships, confidence, and overall well-being.
