30 Days to a Closer Connection with Your Teen
About Me, Course Creator
I have spent the last 25 years guiding, inspiring and supporting thousands of middle and high school students through every possible challenge of adolescence. I have been told by former students that I literally saved their lives during their high school journey. My students and my young adult children have been my greatest teachers.
Not only do I have extensive experience as a teacher, school counsellor and private practice therapist, but I have been through some really difficult challenges with my son who faced significant mental health issues throughout his pre-teen/teen years. I understand how heartbreaking it can be to see your own child struggle and feel helpless, worried and scared. Thankfully today, he is living a healthy lifestyle and a positive, rich and meaningful life. With support and love, we can get through anything!

Our teens are stressed more than ever! With the global mental health crisis, the pandemic, school stress, social media pressures, unrest in the world, and the list goes on, it’s no wonder that being a teen in today’s world is tougher than it’s ever been. Especially over the last few years, global messaging has been communicating to our kids that our world isn’t safe.
With technology and our busy lives, families are becoming more disconnected which is resulting in teens feeling lost and lonely, turning to substances and negative behaviours to “numb” themselves and going elsewhere for support during difficult times.
