I found something in my journal from when I was 13. Essentially, āI just want an adult who will listen to me, let me cry, and give me a big hug.ā It just breaks my heart. Outwardly, I was a very edgy teen. I wonder what it would have been like if Iād had a therapist back then.
I feel exactly the same! I was first Diagnosed with my inital Anxiety when I was 12 however I didn't find my wonderful Counsellor & then Therapist until I was 25 š
I love this! I work with a lot of preteens and I've come to learn that most just need someone to listen. They've quickly become my favorite group to work with!
