Teen Treatment for Depression: Power of Numbers

teen treatment for depression
Does it seem like every teen treatment for depression you’ve seen involves someone talking to or even at a teenager? Has your teen been struggling with depression and you just don’t know what to do? This is understandable at any time, but especially so during a global pandemic. “Depression” and “teenagers” have been linked for a very long time, but it’s also been a very long time since any teens had to live through a pandemic. At Insight Treatment, we have multiple methods of helping teenagers (as well as their parents) deal with depression. 

 

Staff of Empathetic Experts 

Any discussion of how we treat teen depression would be incomplete without mentioning our staff. True professionals who have been at this for a long time, they’ve helped so many teenagers to overcome their depression, to become adults who are able to lead the lives they want to live. When your teenager arrives at Insight, they’ll devise a comprehensive treatment plan specifically for your teen. That way, your teen’s depression is addressed in such a manner that’s perfectly right for your teen and not anyone else. This kind of individualized care is what every teenager deserves, and it’s what we provide to every teen here at Insight. 

 

Teen Treatment for Depression: Group Therapy 

Individual therapy is an important, core component of our program. That said, we utilize plenty of teen group therapy sessions, too. For the most part, teens tend to be more open and honest when in groups of their peers, folks going through the same things they are. In many cases, they’re able to identify with issues and feelings that they may not have been able to articulate or express before. Beyond all of this, it lets the teenagers know that they aren’t on their own, they aren’t the only person in the world going through this, or anything of that nature. As they see others grow and heal, they realize they can do the same, too. 

 

A Welcoming Environment That’s Actually Fun 

All of our teen therapy groups are overseen and facilitated by an experienced professional. Moreover, they’re held in our Insight Treatment facilities. We designed each of these to be placed where teens could learn, yes, but also where they could have a good time, too. When teens are here, they can go on the computer, they can play games, they can engage in activities with other teens. During this time, they can do all of that in a COVID-19 safe way, too. 

 

Always an Outstretched Hand and an Open Door 

When we say that “the door at Insight Treatment” is always open, it’s not just a cutesy saying or anything like that. Our doors are, quite literally, always open to any teenager who needs help. In fact, we’ll keep those doors open right up until the moment someone would force us to shut them. If you’ve been looking for a way to get your teenager help, we’re here.
