Going through tough times in life can be too much to go through by yourself, sometimes all you need is to speak to someone who can listen…

someone who not only provides feedback free of judgement but also offers information that’s helpful. At Family Matters Counseling, our clinicians have extensive experience helping people in Southfield, Michigan and the surrounding areas, handle their mental health problems and issues.

Why do people go to therapy? Are they crazy?

Unfortunately, there is a misconception that therapy clients are sick or “crazy”, but in fact when someone seeks counseling it’s usually because they are struggling with something, and want to avoid further complications or just live their life with relief. Some may seek help in getting over things such as divorce or major life changes such as relationship conflicts and many others may value help in learning to manage emotional issues like depression. As therapists at Family Matters Counseling, we specialize in helping people who are struggling with problems that they just can’t seem to deal with on their own. We sincerely want to see each client succeed with whatever their personal goal is.

    Teenage Counseling Services

    Therapy may be the last thing a parent thinks to do when their teenage son or daughter is struggling. When an issue arises, parents want to be able to solve the problem immediately. But, counseling for teenagers may be just what they need to explore their feelings, understand them and process them in a healthy way.

    What types of issues do teens experience?

    Teens can struggle with issues at school, with friends, with social media and, with bullying. At Family Matters Counseling, we provide counseling for teens in group and one-on-one sessions. If your teen is experiencing any of the following, they may benefit from our counseling services:

    As a parent or guardian of a teenager, it can be challenging at times. Teens may need help sharing or coping with their feelings, changes within the family or a more serious issue. Teens don’t often know how to have difficult conversations with their parents, and Family Matters Counseling offers a non-judgmental environment for parents and teens to open up with the support of a licensed therapist. We ask parents to be present for some of the sessions with their teenager so that they can also learn some of the techniques that will help in the healing process outside of the sessions. Counseling for teenagers will get to the root of what your teen is struggling with while equipping you, the parent, with tools to support them. Whether it’s bullying or self-esteem issues, we can help.
