01
The teen is the client
Trust is the whole mechanism. Swiyah works directly with the teen and keeps caregivers informed about direction and progress rather than the contents of every session.
Therapy for teens
A place where a teenager gets to be honest.
Adolescent therapy in Wilmington, Delaware, and by telehealth statewide, with parents kept appropriately involved without breaking a teen's trust.
Teenagers rarely announce that something is wrong. It shows up as shorter answers, a slipping grade, a door that stays closed, or anger that arrives faster than it used to.
Swiyah gives a teen a room where honesty has no cost. What is said in session stays in session, with the legally required exceptions around safety, and those limits are explained plainly to the teen and to the caregiver at the start.
Caregivers often reach out when
- Sleep, appetite, or school has changed and no one can name why.
- Worry has grown loud enough to keep them home.
- Something frightening happened and they will not talk about it.
- A loss, a move, or a separation reshaped the family.
- The same argument happens every week and nothing shifts.
How the work is done
02
Practical skills, not lectures
Cognitive behavioral tools for the thoughts that spiral, somatic work for a body that is stuck in alarm, and mindfulness practices short enough to actually use before a test or after a fight.
03
Caregivers included on purpose
Check-ins with caregivers are planned, not improvised, so the adults at home know how to support the work without becoming its enforcement.
Questions people ask
- My teen says they do not want therapy. Should we still call?
- Yes. The free consultation is a low-stakes way to ask questions. Many teens agree to one meeting before deciding anything else.
- What will you tell me as the parent?
- You will know the focus of the work, how it is going, and anything that concerns your teen's safety. The day-to-day content stays between Swiyah and your teen so the room stays honest.
- Do you meet with teens by video?
- Yes, for teens physically located in Delaware, with caregiver consent.
