How can I get my teen to cooperate!?

How can I get them to do chores/homework/anything?!

How can I get them to Stop Arguing!?

Parenting in the teen years is tough. Teens are supposed to be challenging, but sometimes it feels like too much.  If your teen isn’t performing up to expectations, if they aren’t as responsible as they should be, if communication is tense and ineffective, if they argue too much and cooperate too little, if you’re afraid that they aren’t on track to become an independent, successful adult… this class can help.

This 5 class series is based on the individual, private work I do with parents in my parent coaching practice. Each of the sessions walks parents through a critical step in understanding–and then improving–their teen’s behavior and the overall relationship.

  • A silly-but-serious technique for keeping perspective

Class #5

  • Ways to help your future self stay grounded in this work. :^)

Testimonials

Your class is really helping us with navigating the flavor of issues we were having over here. I’m flexing new muscles in learning how to keep myself regulated and doing what I’ve aspired to (respond not react) in my parenting journey. The insight into how my reactions were fueling our battles has been so valuable.  Thanks for so many great tools.
