It's painful to see my child upset. I can see that something is wrong, but don't even know where to start. I want to fix it, but I'm feeling lost, anxious, and don't know what to do. They don't go out with friends anymore, grades are dropping, and they rarely come out of their room. When I try to talk to them, they either shut down completely or explode. Then I lose it and it gets only gets worse. I just want my child to be successful and happy, but can't seem to figure out how. I'm worried that something terrible might happen and I would never forgive myself...
Are you ready to find some answers that can make a difference? I use creative strategies, such as art or music, to help children and teens learn to identify and express their thoughts and feelings. I also teach skills to cope with difficult situations. For you, the parent, I offer communication strategies that support you in reconnecting with your child.
Raising kids and teens is HARD. Is it time for your child or teen to build healthier coping skills to deal with life's challenges? Would you like to have some tools to handle their big feelings and build a stronger relationship? Please call my office today for a free 20 minute consultation so we can discuss your family's needs and create a plan.
