How can i help my 13 year old sister be honest during her therapy sessions? she thinks nobody cares, so she tells them she is fine but she gets worse.

Be honest: Continue to tell her how much you care for her and wish she wasn't hurting emotionally. be there when she needs you and express support for the concept of talk therapy. she is in the stage of hopelessness that many teen girls experience. try to relate some of the similar feelings you've had and ask her to trust that talking about feelings helps gain control of them. love her unconditionally
