Therapy For Teens And Adolescents

Supporting healthy relationship development for teens and adolescents in pennsylvania

Support that feels like a glow-up, not a lecture.

No stuffy, toxic, or shaming vibes, just real, healthy connection with therapists who get you.

Feel seen. Feel heard. Feel better.

Therapy, but make it yours.

We Got You…

Between school, friends, family stuff, and eveything else going on in the world, it’s a lot.

Maybe you feel stuck in your head, stressed 24/7, or like no one really gets what you’re going through. It can feel easier to hide it, but deep down you just want to feel okay, and not like you’re constantly fighting or shutting down.

Therapy doesn’t have to be boring, scary, or just “talking about feelings.” Therapy can be interactive, creative, and tailored to what works for you. Sessions might include art, music, games, or simply honest conversations about anything on your mind.

It’s not about changing who you are, it’s about helping you feel better about being you.

Meet Your Therapists

  • Shira Adams

    Therapist, LPC serving Pennsylvania residents

    Hi, I’m Shira.

    You can be yourself here. No pretending or pressure. Therapy doesn't have to be like school where you have to sit still and keep your thoughts to yourself. Luckily, I'm not your parent nor your teacher. We can move, play games, listen to music, draw, create, and even laugh in session.

    This space is guided by your needs and protected with care. No matter what you’re going through: big changes, tough feelings, stress, or drama with friends or family, you’ll be met with understanding and support.

    Hi, I’m Madison.

    Think of therapy as your spot to hit pause on the chaos and just be. You can share what’s going on: stress, friendships, family, or whatever! Together, we’ll figure out ways to cope, understand yourself better, and start feeling more in control.

    This is a place where it’s safe to be honest, try new things, and relax a little too.

A Note To Parents

When a child feels seen, heard, and understood, it often strengthens your connection with them, and helps them feel more confident, resilient, and capable.

We know that watching your child navigate life can feel overwhelming, and sometimes even heartbreaking. As a parent, it’s natural to worry, want to fix things, or feel frustrated when your child struggles with emotions, friendships, school, or family dynamics. You’ve likely been doing your best to support them, and that effort matters.

Our approach prioritizes collaboration: we partner with your child while also keeping you involved and supported in ways that respect their autonomy. The goal isn’t just “fixing problems”, it’s supporting growth, emotional well-being, and healthy relationships now and for the future.

By choosing therapy, you’re giving your teen a safe, affirming space to be themselves, and that’s one of the most powerful gifts you can offer as a parent.

We Can Help Your Child…

  • Process Trauma

    Some experiences leave lasting scars. Whether it’s bullying, loss, or past trauma, therapy helps teens feel safe again, build resilience, and move forward with strength.

  • Make Sense of Family Changes

    Divorce, new siblings, or shifting family roles can feel confusing and stressful. Therapy gives teens a safe outlet to talk it through and discover healthier ways to adjust.

  • Cope with Social Struggles

    Peer relationships can be tough. Counseling helps teens process conflicts, set healthy boundaries, and feel more comfortable being themselves around others.

  • Build Confidence & Self Esteem

    Adolescence is full of comparisons and self-doubt. In therapy, teens learn to recognize their strengths, quiet their inner critic, and grow into a more confident version of themselves.

  • Manage Moods

    Sadness, anger, fear: these emotions can come on strong and feel impossible to control. Therapy teaches emotional regulation skills so teens can respond instead of react.

 FAQs

  • Therapy is a safe space to talk about what’s on your mind, learn ways to handle tough feelings, and practice skills that help you feel better. It’s not about being “fixed”, it’s about being understood and supported.

  • Nope! You get to decide what you share and when. Even just being in the room and listening is okay. Therapy works best when you feel comfortable, not pressured.

  • You’ll start noticing small changes, like feeling a bit calmer, sleeping better, or handling stress in new ways.

  • We meet online via a secure telehealth video chat.

  • As a concierge therapy service, Relational Realm does not accept insurance because most insurance companies dictate the methods, frequency, and length of your treatment. As trauma therapists, we cannot ethically treat you based on someone else’s assumptions of your needs. Additionally, insurance companies require treatment “justification,” asking therapists to prove that someone is “sick” and is not improving. This goes directly against our mission and values; you are not broken. 

    We provide Superbills for out of network insurance reimbursement.

  • All cancellations made sooner than 48 hours before an appointment will not incur a charge. If you cancel your appointment less than 48 hours before it is scheduled, you will be subject to the full charge of the session. Likewise, a “no-show” charge of the full cost of the session will be incurred if you miss a scheduled session with no notice. If you are more than 15 minutes late to your appointment, it is considered a “no show” and you will be responsible for the session fee.
