Adolescence is a threshold when identities form, emotions deepen, and relationships stretch in new directions.

Teens are becoming their full selves while still relying on the adults who love them. This tension can bring confusion, conflict, distance, and moments of unexpected wisdom.

Are you wondering whether your teen’s behavior is typical or a sign they’re struggling?

Is your teen dealing with conflict, dropping grades, or choices that concern you?

Do you want to stay supportive without overwhelming or pushing them away?

Does your teen seek a safe place to talk about their worries?

At The Alamo, we help families make sense of these rapid changes with steadiness, reflection, and care.

Parents Reach Out To Us When…

  • Home feels tense

  • Grades slip or school is overwhelming

  • Issues with or in friendships

  • Risky behaviors emerge

  • Their teen withdraws or erupts

  • Identity, culture, or gender questions arise

  • Adoption or foster care experiences

  • Divorce, loss, moving

Let's Talk

The teenage years are confusing for everyone. We help teens and parents make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface.

How Therapy With Us Works

We see therapy as a bridge between a teen’s growing independence and a parent’s desire to stay connected.

Our teen therapists blend attachment theory, relational psychotherapy, and psychodynamic reflection, helping teens name what’s going on inside.

Sessions often include time with the teen one-on-one with the therapist, and time with the teen, parent and therapist together.

Modalities We Use

  • Strengthens bonds between teens and parents; creates a foundation of trust and understanding.

  • Encourages self-awareness and helps teens understand their motivations and emotions.

  • Builds on what’s working and helps teens develop confidence in making healthy decisions.

  • Teaches how nervous systems influence emotions and behavior; supports self-regulation and emotional literacy.

  • Engages parents as active participants, not bystanders, to sustain progress at home.
