During this time, teens are exposed to some overwhelming external and internal struggles. They go through, and are expected to cope with hormonal changes, puberty, social and parental forces, work and school pressures, and so on. Many teens feel misunderstood.

Society is escalating at an insane, never before seen pace. We naturally feel like we need to be on the move, and constantly in action. But is that really the natural way of doing things? Life is a challenge when you lack safe and supportive relationships. It’s easy to isolate and feel like you have to figure everything out on your own. You are hesitant to burden the people around you, so instead you suffer in silence. Life by Design Therapy  supports this understanding through  holistic  and  somatic psychotherapy .
