It is normal for adolescents to have sexual fantasies and to explore their sexuality. The psychologist’s response should be reassuring and validating, letting the patient know that their experiences are common. A possible follow-up question could be to ask if the patient feels comfortable sharing this information with anyone else, and if they have any concerns about their sexuality.
