Family Counseling for Parents and Teens
Managing Conflict and Problems
Are there changes in your child that have you worried?
Fighting? Falling grades? Defiance?
Withdrawn?
Does it seem that they woke up one morning and an alien took over their body and mind? You may hear your teenager say things like: Or, they may be just thinking those things and what you get is silence, moodiness, slammed doors, non-cooperation, ungratefulness, irritation and disrespect. This a confusing, challenging time for everyone concerned and there is hope and solutions.
Get off my back!
You just don't understand!
They may be thinking:
if only they knew what I was going through!
What I find is that all teens go through tremendous growth, challenge and change during this time of their lives. Some sail through, some stumble and some fall down. I have found that there are many reasons for this but it doesn’t make it any easier to deal with.
Teens are somewhere between child and adult. It is a very difficult time for everyone. It may seem that your teen is going through the toddler stage all over again. The relationship becomes strained, frustration mounts, and you may not know what step to take next.
