This particular stage of life can trigger many emotions and feelings in both teens and parents. Often times, this results in power struggles and conflicts that feel like all out wars. Teens tend to view their bedroom as their refuge guarded by emotional grenades that can be unsettling or alarming for parents.

Knowing if your teen would benefit from counseling or noticing that they may be desiring help can be a challenge to navigate.  In some cases, your teenager may want to talk to someone who is not their parent.  Even though they don’t always want to admit it or ask for it, counseling could provide the outlet they are searching for and need.  It is important to keep in mind that no one responds well to therapy if they feel they are being forced or punished; so have a conversation with your teen in a positive context so they know you just want to help and gain a better understanding in how to partner with them during this stage of life.

Our heart is to help kiddos, teens, and parents bridge the gap that can happen before anyone even notices.
