Counseling & Coaching
for Moms of Teens
You’re a Mom of a Teenager, and Everyone Keeps Telling You that the Chaos is Normal.
But something feels off to you. You feel anxious, overwhelmed, mentally paralyzed, and stretched thin.
You find yourself wondering:
Why do I feel like I’m walking on eggshells around my teenager?
How do I balance parenting, work, and everything else without losing myself?
Why does it feel impossible to connect with my teen?
Why are there so many arguments over the simplest things?
Why do I feel guilty for wanting a break?
Why do other moms seem to have it together, and I’m just barely hanging on?
Will this phase ever get easier?
Counseling or Coaching Can Help
In spite of what society likes to tell us about how awful these teen years are going to be, parenting a teenager can actually be a rewarding and even enjoyable journey. But it can also feel overwhelming and isolating. Maybe you had a different picture in your head about what these years would look like. Counseling or Coaching might be just what you need! It can give you insights, strategies, and tools to navigate the complexities of raising a teenager while also taking care of yourself.
Counseling is the right place to start if:
You struggle to manage your own anxiety and overwhelm while also trying to help your teen manage his/hers.
You find yourself walking on eggshells because you avoid all conflict or confrontation.
You struggle with setting boundaries and sticking to them.
You want to ditch old patterns and heal old trauma so that these things have less impact on the way you parent.
You understand that taking the time to work on your own mental health will allow you to be the parent you want to be.
