Your son or daughter isn't overreacting: what they're feeling is real. At MadridPsicoterapia, we help teenagers understand their anxiety and restore your well-being with a professional yet personalized approach.
Specialists in youth and anxiety
Adolescence is a stage of profound changes—physical, emotional, and social—that can become fertile ground for disorders of anxiety. According to data from the FAD Youth Barometer and the Ministry of Health’s ESTUDES survey, Mental health issues among young Spaniards have increased significantly in recent years, and the anxiety It ranks as one of the most common reasons for seeking medical care among people aged 12 to 18.
At our office in Chamberí (141 Santa Engracia, Madrid) Every day, we work with adolescents who experience symptoms such as chest tightness, difficulty concentrating, constant irritability, avoidance of social situations, or an intense fear of academic failure. These symptoms are not mere whims or a lack of effort—they are signs that something requires professional attention.
The anxiety school-related is one of the most common forms of anxiety in this age group. Pressure to get good grades, college entrance exams, or the fear of public speaking can cause a level of distress that seriously interferes with performance and motivation. Similarly, the social anxiety in adolescents (the persistent fear of being judged by peers, of not fitting in, or of exposing themselves on social media) limits their relationships and personal growth at a crucial time in their lives.
It's important to know that Anxiety in adolescents has its own distinct characteristics that set it apart from anxiety in adults. That’s why, at MadridPsicoterapia, we offer treatment specifically tailored to young people, based on evidence-based cognitive-behavioral techniques, where the adolescent feels heard and understood—not interrogated. If you’d like to better understand what anxiety is in general, we invite you to visit our page on Anxiety in Madrid.
Our Team of psychologists specializing in anxiety in adolescents It takes an approach that places the young person at the center of the process and, when appropriate, involves the family as part of the therapeutic support. The goal is not to eliminate all anxiety (a certain level is natural and adaptive), but rather provide practical tools to manage their feelings and get back to their normal daily routine.

Frequently Asked Questions
We know that many questions may arise before starting therapy. Here, we answer the most common questions we receive from people who contact our clinic.
Starting therapy is an important step. Having a safe and professional space can make all the difference when it comes to exploring your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, helping you cope with challenges, or fostering your personal growth.
The process is simple—we'll guide you every step of the way and conduct an initial assessment to assign you to the psychologist in Madrid that best suits your needs and goals. If the professional is the right fit for you, you'll begin a process together of personalized individual therapy, tailored to your needs and adapted to your pace.
Both work just as well. Choose the one that's most comfortable or practical for you. Some people prefer to leave the house and go to a specific place, while others prefer to log in from their couch. You can also mix and match depending on what works best for you each week or switch things up.
Of course, for the online session, we ask that you be in a quiet place where no one will disturb you for 50 minutes, have a device with a camera and microphone (computer, tablet, or cell phone), and a reliable Wi-Fi connection. That's all.We try to make everything easy. The price of an individual psychology session is 55 euros for consultations year-round. No matter where you are.
Once you feel that the professional relationship is working, you can choose the balance bonus and save 20% of the cost of the sessions. Appointments can be scheduled individually.
The best way is to try it out. That’s why we offer a free initial session where you can get to know us, tell us what’s going on with you, and see if you feel comfortable with us. There’s no obligation—just a conversation from a different perspective. Many people come in without being sure if they need therapy, and that first session helps them decide or begin to define their treatment needs.
We don't use a one-size-fits-all approach. Our individual therapy in Madrid tailors our approach to you: to your personality, your situation, and your goals. You don’t have to adapt to our way of working—we’re the ones who make that effort.
During the first free session, you’ll meet the professional you’d be working with. It’s important that you have a good connection and feel heard. If, after that first session, you feel like it’s not the right fit for you, we can refer you to another team member. That’s okay—it’s normal. In therapy, that’s called “transference.”
You tell us what brought you here, what’s on your mind, or what you’d like to change. We’ll ask you a few questions to better understand your situation. We’ll address your concerns. And we’ll assess whether therapy can help you and what the process would look like. You’ll leave with a clear idea of what to expect and a framework for moving forward.
Because before you spend any money, we want you to get to know us and be sure that this is what you're looking for. It's an opportunity for both of us: you see if you feel comfortable, and we assess whether we can help you. And then we each make our own decision.
There is no set answer. It will depend on the assessment made by the team member. However, it is always recommended—at least at the beginning—to have one psychotherapy session per week.
Some people need more intensity than others; others need flexibility and more space. Every person is different, and so is the treatment.
We work with most psychological issues: anxiety in its various forms, depression, trauma, grief, eating disorders, OCD, addictions, self-esteem issues, relationship conflicts, family difficulties… If you’re not sure whether your situation falls within the scope of what we do, just ask us. We’ll honestly tell you whether we can help you or if we need to refer you to another resource.
It might feel a little strange at first, yes. But most people get used to it right away. At the end of the day, it's just a conversation, and what matters is what's said, not the medium. Many people even prefer online conversations because they feel more relaxed in their own space.
Whenever you want. You're not tied to a specific format. If you start online and then decide you’d rather come in, or vice versa, that’s no problem. We’re located in the center of Madrid, in the Chamberí neighborhood. Of course, you’d need to talk to the professional treating you to discuss this in detail.
There's no standard answer. Some people need just a few sessions to resolve a specific issue, while others go through a longer process. During the first session, we'll give you a rough idea based on your situation, but that's just what it is—a rough idea.
It's usual to come once a week, especially at first. Later on, you can space out your sessions to every two weeks. But it also depends on your schedule and what you're working on. You can decide this with your therapist. We'll see how it goes.
We don't work directly with insurance companies, but we'll provide you with an invoice so you can submit it to your insurance provider if they offer reimbursement. Check with your insurance provider to see if they cover individual therapy sessions with private psychologists in Madrid.
