Your once bubbly and talkative teen is now spending all of their time in their room, withdrawing from loved ones and feeling alone with increasing stress. You feel like you haven't been able to connect with them, and wonder what's happening in their lives. You have noticed they are more distant, sad, or angry but aren't sure why, and when you try to help you feel like it makes everything worse. The things that you used to talk about and enjoy together don't interest them anymore. You are starting to feel like you are losing your son or daughter.
You want to feel like you did when they would tell you their favorite jokes and shower you with love. You want to relate and connect with them again. You want to be able to talk with them about their struggles and concerns, big and small. You want them to feel safe, supported and loved, looking forward to their bright future. I can help you.
Providing a cozy and confidential space, we will work together and establish a plan to develop coping skills and practical tools that will help your teen feel less angry and more supported. My practice incorporates CBT, Mindfulness and EMDR. Schedule your free 20 minute phone consultation here: https://randrmentalhealthcounseling.clientsecure.me
