GetzWell Teen Care
21st Century Adolescent Medicine for the Minds and Bodies of Teens and Tweens
As your child gets older, are you noticing that they are becoming more emotionally unpredictable? That they care more about their peers’ opinions than yours? That almost everything you do (or wear, or say) is “cringe”? Congratulations! You have a teenager!
The adolescent ride is a wild one. Kids grow and change fast, and all of that rapid change can manifest not only physically but emotionally and psychologically. For parents, it can be challenging to know whether their teen’s behavior is a normal response to the roller coaster of adolescence or if it’s time to get some professional help. If you’ve been asking yourself whether your teen is struggling with anxiety or depression, as opposed to typical teenage behavior, you’re not alone.

“It’s unbelievable what we have accomplished with GetzWell’s unique approach to our son’s ADHD.
Dr. Getzelman has helped him go from being wiggly, impulsive and challenged-to-focus in the classroom to a more calm and successful student in a competitive San Francisco academic setting in just a few short months. We had been preoccupied for years, going from one specialist to another, ultimately without a lot of confidence that a purely conventional approach would provide our highly intelligent kid the help he needed to fulfill what we believed was his full potential. We’re finally seeing that kid: focused, more motivated than ever, and with a growing self-esteem that makes us proud. We are just so amazed and grateful!”

“After trying every single modality and exhausting our options with Kaiser, we were at our wits end trying to help our child.
As a desperate parent, I was willing to do anything for my 10-year-old daughter who was severely struggling with depression and anxiety. The GetzWell Team was the miracle that surpassed my biggest hopes. They spent an incredible amount of time to comprehensively learn about every aspect of my daughter and our family and seek to understand not just a single cause but the systems at play that were contributing to her anxiety and depression. For the first time, my daughter was regarded and treated holistically and for that reason, she is now healthy, thriving, and is as happy as can be. We owe everything to Dr. Getzelman and the GetzWell team. We can’t sing their praises enough!”
