From the Brain and Behaviour development perspective, Adolescent age starts around puberty between 10 to 13 and last until about 24 years of age in a process called Brain Maturation. Often classified as early adolescents (or teens between 13 – 18) and young adults 19-24 this is also a vulnerable age for emotional, behavioral or mental health issues.

Adolescence is a vulnerable stage of life, where events can impact teenagers like waves crashing one after another. Certain behavioural issues can hinder their overall development. These issues are not necessarily mental health concerns or major personality problems, which can lead parents to overlook them or rely on traditional methods that may be ineffective. Early intervention can prevent these issues from escalating or worsening, improving the quality of life.
