Therapy for Teens
Abigail highlights the stark differences between therapy for adults and for teens, emphasizing that many young people are often coerced into therapy without the desire to engage. This lack of agency can hinder their ability to articulate their feelings and recognize their progress. She warns that an intense focus on personal pain, especially in adolescents, can exacerbate feelings of sadness and lead to a cycle of self-indulgence that may worsen mental health issues.In this clip
