Therapy for Teens: Building Resilience and Emotional Well-Being
Therapy is a transformative process that helps teens navigate their emotions, address challenges, and build healthy coping strategies. It offers a safe, supportive environment where teens can work through personal difficulties, gain self-awareness, and achieve mental well-being. Therapy is about healing, growth, and finding strength during life’s most important stages.
At Path, our therapists are compassionate professionals who specialize in adolescent mental health. We create a welcoming space for your teen to feel heard, understood, and empowered, tailoring therapy sessions to address their specific needs and goals.
Our therapy services address:
- Mental health challenges (depression, anxiety, PTSD, etc.)
- Relationship struggles (family, peers, or partners)
- Stress from school, social pressures, and life transitions
- Building self-esteem and personal growth
With therapy, your teen is never alone. Whether they’re facing a tough situation or striving for long-term goals, we’re here to guide them—and your family—every step of the way.
Case Management: Helping Families Navigate Life
Case management is a collaborative process designed to connect teens and families to the resources they need. Whether your family is navigating school challenges, accessing healthcare, or planning for the future, our case managers ensure care is accessible and personalized. At its core, case management is about advocacy, coordination, and helping families thrive.
At Path, our case managers provide unwavering support for families and teens. We make sure your voice is heard and your goals are prioritized, offering solutions that are practical, compassionate, and effective.
Case management services include:

Frequently Asked Questions.
What does "PATH" Stand For?
PATH is an acronym for Positive Advocates Teaching and Helping. We felt it was important to choose a name that put positivity first as we believe seeing themselves in a positive light is crucial to our clients’ success.
We also intentionally choose the term “advocates” for our employees because advocates are defined by the support they provide. Our team is happy to serve in support of your success!
How Long Will My Teen Need To Receive Services?
This is a complex question with a wide range of answers. The answers can change based on factors such as: specific diagnosis, acuity and duration of symptoms, personal motivation and willingness to engage in services, personal support systems, your personal goals for your care, etc.
Perspective can also make a big difference in how long services are necessary. With an illness removal perspective, services will be needed just long enough to reduce or manage negative symptoms, which can take a few weeks to a year. However, with a wellness promotion perspective, the focus will be enhancing the positive aspects of life, and preventing future issues. This approach may take more time, as it is like exercising, but for mental well-being instead of physical.
What is important is to note that regardless of approach, you will always have control over your child’s care. Path will work collaboratively with you to develop meaningful treatment goals that focus on individual needs.
What ages do you provide services to?
“Zero barriers to care” dictates that we do not limit the ages that we serve. It is noteworthy that, in most cases, we do not provide services for children younger than school aged as those children are often best served by early intervention specialists. However, we are very willing to provide assessment and evaluation services to anyone of any age. If we believe anyone, regardless of age, would be better served by another provider, we will make that recommendation and assist you in arranging for services that can best meet your needs.
What type of funding do you accept?
PATH is primarily funded through state Medicaid funding and income sensitive payment models. Although each state may have a different name for the programs that manage Medicaid funds, Path accepts funding from all agencies that manage and distribute Medicaid payments.
We also work with many private insurance providers. To find out if your insurer covers our services, please contact your local Path office.
