Empowering Teens to Thrive

Growing up brings a wide variety of change and unknown that result in stress and feeling overwhelmed. Iris Family Support Center is here to support teenagers, helping them figure out how to effectively handle stress while learning about themselves and the world around them. Together, we can develop strategies for your teen to create the future they want for themselves.

Our team of experienced counselors can help your child with anxiety, trauma, grief, and whatever else they may be facing. Our counselors work with them to help them understand what they are facing and find methods that work best for them to move forward. In addition to individual work, Iris Family Support Center also offers group programs to help youth address what they are facing with their peers and trained members of the Iris team.
