Understanding the Teen Experience

The teenage years are a time of rapid change, self-discovery, and emotional development. However, this phase can also be marked by struggles and uncertainties. As a parent or guardian, you may have observed some of the following signs in your teen:

–  Strained Relationships: Behavioral shifts in your teen can sometimes cause strains in your relationship. Communication breakdowns, defiance, or withdrawal can be indicators of underlying issues.

–  Social and Academic Challenges: Social pressures, academic stressors, and peer dynamics can impact a teen’s well-being and self-esteem.

– Difficulty Opening Up: Some teens find it challenging to open up about their feelings, even with those closest to them.
