Adolescents
This is such an important developmental stage and it is also one of the most challenging period for parents and their children. Often, there is a disconnection that has happened because of the delicate balance that needs to occur: it is between parents letting go in a way that allows their teenager to explore the world, make some mistakes, develop their identity and parents upholding important limits and boundaries that keep their teenagers safe. Simultaneously, teenagers have to demonstrate a sense of responsibility with their independence so that parents can trust their teenager and feel comfortable with allowing some freedom. I am able to help families reconnect and find a way to balance the important needs that both parents and teenagers have during this time.
