“I started Kentucky Counseling Center in 2014 because I was frustrated with my father’s experience getting treatment for schizophrenia. When he finally found someone that could help, there was a 6-month waiting list, and the doctor didn’t accept his insurance. Mental health care should be easy to find and affordable to receive.”
Matt Grammer, LPCC-S Founder

Who Are Considered Teens?
Adolescence or teenage years is the time when growth spurts and puberty happen. Teens are considered young adults who belong to the age group of 13-19 years old. Teens don’t only undergo physical changes; they also experience mental, emotional, and social changes. Teens also start to gain independence and self-control by this time.
Types of Teen Counseling
These are the different types of online therapy programs for teens that Kentucky Counseling Center (KCC) offers:
Teen Counseling Techniques
Kentucky Counseling Center (KCC) employs different techniques in administering its online professional therapy programs. These are some of these techniques:
For the first session, the therapist and teenager need to build a good and personal connection with each other. The first session is the time for introduction and getting to know each other through likes and dislikes. It is important that the therapist guarantees that the young adult feels comfortable and less judged during sessions.
Signs to Look Into if a Teen Needs Therapy
As a parent or caregiver, it is important to know the signs if a child’s mental health is suffering and health care and support are needed. Here are the signs to watch out for:
- Mood swings
- Behavioral changes
- Lack of motivation and energy to do school work
- Engaging in smoking or drinking alcoholic drinks
- Spending time alone for hours
- Feeling controlled by others
- Hearing things that others can’t hear

How to Talk About Mental Health to Teens
Teenage years can be considered difficult years for a young adult. If teenagers are going through difficult times, they tend to deny this and believe that no one can help them. The teen may be having depression which can affect how they think and stops them from thinking positively.
Here are some suggestions on how to approach the topic of counseling and therapy to a teenager:
- Bring up the topic when the teen is comfortable and relaxed. A relaxed environment could be their home.
- The conversation should be simple, understandable, and uncomplicated.
- Ask them if they prefer to talk to another person about their problems
- Assuring them that talking to another adult is fine and can help them resolve their concerns
- Respect their feelings by asking them what they are feeling
- Show them concern by directly asking if they are thinking of harming themselves or committing suicide
Benefits of Teen Online Therapy Services
Suppose a teen is suffering from behavioral or emotional symptoms that get in the way of their daily activities in school or at home. In that case, the teen should be brought to a mental health professional for professional medical advice.
Through online counseling, licensed therapists can address teens’ mental health issues where ever they are. Licensed therapists can interact with teens through phone calls, text messaging, video chat, or any platform that speaks to their generation.
