Teenagers can be under an enormous amount of stress - often keeping it to themselves and not fully showing it to parents.  Peer pressure, school performance pressure, shifting hormone levels and general teenager struggles can all contribute to higher stress and anxiety levels that can manifest as behavioural issues, poor self image, lack of confidence, low school grades, rebelliousness and more.  

 

Teenagers often don't feel comfortable talking about their feelings with parents or in a 'talk therapy' situation and this is where Cranial Sacral Therapy sessions can be very helpful because I'm able to work through the body to resolve and release nervous system stress and tension, with a lesser focus on talking.  

​

Here are some of the stress-related issues/conditions I am able to help teenagers with:

​
