What about the “terrific teen” period of life?
The process of becoming an adult is not easy. It’s chock-full of huge challenges:
Many teens feel lost. And for totally understandable reasons.
The pressure to know what they want.
The high stakes demand that they perform and achieve.
This leads to extremes in behavior.
Up at all hours. Sleeping all day. Poor nutrition. Radical mood swings.
Peer pressure. School pressure. Sports pressure. Home pressure.
One minute, they’re the child you’ve known all along. The next? You barely recognize them.
Whether your teen is consumed with perfectionism, has lost motivation, or is acting as if they just don’t care – we get it.
Transitioning into adulthood is a huge challenge.
Sometimes, it can seem like your family is trekking through the jungle, trying not to get consumed by some dangerous animal.
As a parent, you want to keep them safe and help them become the best version of themselves.
And then there are many factors in the world that affect this phase of transition from childhood to emerging adulthood.
Reaching out for help doesn’t mean you have failed. It means you care enough to know what you are doing isn’t working, and you need resources.
That’s where we come in.
We offer a neutral perspective that listens to both you and your teen.
We bring a different set of eyes and ears, with expertise in this phase of life.
We work to build the trust and rapport that encourages conversation about your teenager’s unique situation. On that foundation of trust, we then encourage a different path that feels safe and authentic for the teen.
We’re fluent in the many areas at stake during adolescence, including:
The yelling and the stonewalling get quieter.
Talking and listening start filling in the space where the slammed doors used to be.
Your teen names what they need. You hear it.
They hear that you heard it.
The angst about what comes next softens. You’re able to be curious and encouraging.
Your teen builds the skills for the launch into adulthood alongside the certainty that your support was always there.
Time is precious. Every day, your teen is getting closer to launching.
Time isn’t waiting, and neither should you.
