Virtual Parent Coaching Teens:
What is happening and how to create relationship with an adolescent
For the past 20 years I have had the privilege of working with adolescents and young adults in a variety of settings. I appreciate and respect the energy of this time of life. Most often when I work with parents in this stage, they are feeling disconnected from their kids, and their kids are feeling misunderstood. Both parties can become resentful and confused. Coaching for you as parents allows you to demonstrate that you are willing to do your own work (often goes a long way in rebuilding trust) and allows you to develop the skills necessary to meet your young person where they are today.

Navigating the toughest parts of the teens years with your own online support
Our teenagers need our guidance, support, and wisdom. Do they want it? Will they listen to it? Altogether a different story.
Parenting young people today is rife with challenges that generations before us could not have imagined. It isn't just how much screen time to allow, now it is, what is your teen's relationship to AI? How is their critical thinking developing?
Gain communication and de-escalation skills so you can have the hard conversations and show up as the role model you want to be.
Moving from constant power struggles to connected communication
Since I started my career in 2004, I have been invested in helping families navigate life together. Parenting adolescents and young adults has never been more challenging than it is today. Our young people have lived through a pandemic and are coming of age in a time of climate crisis; their existential fears are valid. Parents are often at a loss of how to manage technology/social media and feel unprepared for the level of harm that teens can experience from various platforms. Parent coaching is available and is part of what will be a collaborative effort to help your family. Please reach out if this is the kind of support you are looking for. Designed as a short term intervention, 90 minute sessions/$350.
