The teenagers I work with experience a lot of worry and fear. They are struggling with ongoing expectations of school, family, athletic goals, peers, and society. They often don't feel seen or heard which can cause low self-esteem, lack of motivation, poor relationships, and sadness. However, there is a desire to find solutions and relief.

Your days feel like a routine without purpose and motivation? get the kids dressed, eat, household chores, work, play with the kids, school work, sleep…task after task?
