We worry about our kids, and often struggle the most when they are teenagers. Good parents do worry. Some worry is productive and creative while other times worry can be unhealthy for you and your teen. To one degree or another your teenager is pulling away, yet they still depend on you in very important ways. I can work with you and your teen in important and transformative ways. I do not eliminate your worries, act as an expert, or help you to control them but I can facilitate the dynamic process of learning, understanding, and adjustment that parenting requires.

I can help you learn to think and communicate more effectively about your concerns and to find a stance that is fundamentally calm, reflective, and curious. We can be concerned without being stuck in anxiety, fear, stressful power struggles and conflict. Each family and each teen is unique. We will find what works for you.
