Troubled Teen Girls

Troubled_Teen_Girls

Many people think that teenage boys are the only ones who get rebellious and cause trouble, but the facts are that plenty of teenage girls suffer from emotional, behavioral or mental health issues that cause bad behavior. Issues like anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, abuse trauma, substance abuse, bipolar, undiagnosed ADD/ADHD and more can turn a smiling teen girl into a moody, destructive and angry one.

If you feel like your teenage daughter is struggling with any of these issues or more, it’s time to intervene and get her some professional therapy in a residential program. Help Your Teen Now is a parent advocate group dedicated to providing the support and resources that parents of troubled teens need to arrange for long-term residential therapy for their children.

Please contact Help Your Teen Now for a free consultation at 1-800-901-7347 and start the healing process for your teenage daughter.

Benefits of Schools for Troubled Teens

There are plenty of benefits for troubled teen girls when they attend a therapeutic boarding school. Whether the school is a few cities away or across the country, the teenagers will gain a new perspective on life as they work through their emotional, behavioral or mental health issues while surrounded by professionals. What’s most important is that you find the best school for your daughter’s needs, and especially one that has experience in treating your daughter’s specific issues.

Here are just a few of the advantages your daughter will receive when attending a boarding school for troubled teens:

  • Therapy. A licensed and experienced therapist will hold group and individual therapy sessions to get to the heart of every teen girl’s issues.
  • Academics. Teens can get caught up to grade level while being taught by licensed teachers, and may even be able to earn a high school diploma.
  • Recreation. Teens need to learn how to have fun, build relationships and bonds with peers and set and achieve goals, and recreation can do that. Common programs include horseback riding, hiking, biking, boating, and more.
  • Life skills. Tens will work toward eventual independence by learning life skills like cooking, budgeting, laundry, and more.
  • Nutrition and fitness. Teens need to learn to take care of themselves and stay healthy, so they will get the chance to learn about exercise, nutrition and personal care.

Caring mentors and experienced staff members will always be working alongside your troubled teen daughter to make sure she is being supported and guided toward a brighter future. We believe that ever teenager deserves a second chance, and we want to help you find the perfect program for your daughter. Help Your Teen Now is ready to help you match up the conditions your daughter struggles with to the right schools and programs so that she can get help from experienced people who really want to see her succeed.

Issues For Those Who Don’t Attend Boarding Schools for Troubled Teens

Often, teenagers engage in bad behavior because they want to do something to cover up the pain and fear they feel, even if it is just temporary. AS they get into the behavior more deeply, they stop caring or sensing how the risky behavior is getting more dangerous. Before long, the teenager can be putting herself or others in harm’s way. While many parents don’t believe their child will engage in such behavior, all too often, teens who don’t get professional help are active in a number of bad behaviors.

Top risky behaviors for teens include:

  • Alcohol use
  • Drug use
  • Tobacco use
  • Theft
  • Running away
  • Risky sexual activity
  • Skipping school
  • Self-harm
  • Violence
  • Suicide

No parent wants to stand by and watch their child make mistakes that could have serious long-term consequences or their future. The time to intervene Is before the risky behaviors get too bad. If you are noticing a number of risky behaviors in your teenager, you should definitely contact Help Your Teen Now and get the guidance you need to find a therapeutic boarding school for your teen.
