Interested to learn more?

Parenting Solutions for Challenging Teens is my high level training program that was carefully developed for parents struggling with parenting a "troubled" teen.

I am offering an alternative to the troubled teen industry as I am against all types of out of home placements except in cases where a child is in danger. I specialize in helping caregivers of challenging teens restore family connections and ensure their teen’s social, emotional, mental health, educational and physical needs are met with an adequate support system so that their teen can grow up to be healthy, safe and successful. I believe that with the right support, planning and education, parents have the power to change their families for the better and lay the foundation for a positive relationship with their teen in adulthood.

You have the power to change your family!

Let me help.

Good Fit

Your family has already tried traditional therapy and medication management.

You are open to new ideas and ways of thinking about kids.

You love having support AND you are motivated to do your own work outside of the time we spend together.

Not So Good Fit

Your family has not tried any other methods to address the needs of both parents and teens.

You believe the situation your family is in is 100% your teen's fault.

You want someone to "fix" your kid without investing the time, money and energy needed to make real, lasting change within your family.

I know you...You're a parent struggling to figure out how the hell you're going to get your teen back on the right path.

So be real with me for a minute

Imagine yourself 10 years from now... What's your relationship like with your teen? Will you be in their life? Will they be safe, happy and successful?

Are you ready to end the constant worry about their future and move forward KNOWING you have prepared them well and you have a strong relationship with them?

Q & A

How do I know I need coaching?

Coaching is a good option when you have tried therapy and medication management for your teen AND you are open to a much more hands-on approach.

I specialize in families who have been told the only option left is residential treatment/placement. I am PASSIONATE about keeping kids out of residential and I KNOW I can help you keep your child at home where they belong.

What's different about coaching versus therapy?

Simply put, therapy requires a diagnosis with symptoms we a treating. Coaching is providing someone with specific skills, tools, and support they need to solve a specific problem in their lives. In this case, I will provide you with all of the skills, tools and support you need to address absolutely all of your concerns with your teen.

What's it actually like to be in coaching?

There are two main components to my seminar: coaching calls and online course work.

Online course work uses video, worksheets, exercises, etc. to teach you the skills and tools you need. As you go through the course work, you will have questions and you will get stuck. You will try things I teach you and fail.

That's where coaching comes in.

Coaching calls give you the opportunity to ask questions, get feedback, and get support from me AND other parents going through similar situations. Coaching calls are in a group format weekly. If you need extra help, you can always reach out and I will support you however I can.

How much time will it take?

It will take you about 3-6 hours per week for the duration of the seminar which is 16 weeks. This equals out to about 25- 50 minutes per day. You can listen/watch videos while you are doing other things as long as you are able to absorb the information.

I have watched/listened to course videos while driving, cooking, cleaning, etc. just make sure you are giving yourself the time and space you need to understand the information so you can actually use it.

Pro tip: keep a list of questions to bring to coaching as you listen/watch.

You also need to attend at least 1 coaching call a week out of the two offered, which should last about an hour. If you need additional support, you can schedule one on one coaching if needed.

Coaching is simply solving a non-clinical problem. You know how to be a coach, trust me. I’ll show you the systems.
