Teen Therapy

In-person in Cedar City, St. George, and Provo; virtual anywhere in Utah and Idaho.

“I like that you work with all ages from my oldest to my youngest and they have all left better equipped to handle life’s challenges, and when their friends are having a hard time I hear them repeat things that you told them."

– Privately Disclosed

Your teen seems like they’re in constant turmoil …

… slamming doors, shutting you out, or refusing to go to school.

Maybe they’re withdrawing completely, spending hours online or locked in their room.

Their emotions feel unpredictable—one minute they’re snapping, the next they’re in tears.

You’ve tried talking, setting boundaries, or even just staying out of the way, but nothing seems to help.

Imagine seeing your teen handle challenges with confidence.

They’re opening up to you—maybe even laughing together again—and finding healthy ways to express their feelings.

School doesn’t feel like a battle anymore, and you notice them rebuilding friendships and routines that bring them joy.

Little by little, they’re learning to manage their emotions, feel more secure in themselves, and even take pride in their progress.

Life at home feels calmer, with fewer blow-ups and more moments of connection.

You’re in good hands with Rise Therapy.
