You feel like a horrible parent…
…because you’re struggling to understand your teen.
You’re exhausted. You look at your teen and feel guilty.
The constant doubt plays in your head.
“I missed something. I went wrong somewhere. I didn’t do enough. I was too strict, or not strict enough.”
You’re on an emotional roller coaster trying to “fix” this problem.
But, no matter what you do, you can’t find a way to reach your teen and neither of you understand each other.
Ultimately, you feel drained, and believe you’re the worse parent in the world.
You aren’t sure whether to seek out support, or whether this is a normal part of raising a teen. You look at this person who you have raised all these years and you don’t know them anymore.
They appear to need you emotionally, but push you away for no apparent reason.
Physically, they’re more mature, independent, and often times bigger than you, but they still seem clueless.
They’re secretive, quiet, and honestly you walk on eggshells all the time with how moody they can be.
You are at the end of your rope, ready to throw your hands in the air to surrender. You’ve tried everything and you’re at a loss.
But there is hope.
We help parents who are on the brink of giving up on fixing the mess in their home.
We start with helping you know that this is bigger than you. Your teen is going through more than just normal teen stuff.
We’ll help your teen learn how to express themselves, and you’ll learn how to respond in a way that truly helps them.
If you’re ready to find some relief, call us.
We help teenagers dealing with behavioral issues, anxiety, new transitions, gender identity issues, sexuality, bullying, trauma, depression, sadness, low self-esteem, divorce, grief, loss, shyness, shame, guilt, and more.
