Reach the teen who has stopped letting you in.
Practical, one-on-one guidance for parents trying to get through to a struggling or shut-down teenager. Education and coaching from a clinician who works with these kids every day, never therapy, and never a replacement for your teen's own care.
Coaching for you, the parent.
When your teenager goes quiet, angry, or unreachable, it is easy to feel like you are out of moves. Parent consulting gives you a steady place to think it through: what may be going on underneath the behavior, what to say (and what to stop saying), and how to stay connected without walking on eggshells. Daniel works one-on-one, or in small groups of parents, and draws on Internal Family Systems and years spent with reactive, high-risk teens.
This is guidance for you. It is education and coaching, framed clearly as consulting, so it can happen outside the therapy setting and focus on what is yours to do as a parent.
Parent consulting is educational and supportive. It is not therapy, not a substitute for professional mental health care, and not a diagnosis or treatment for your teen or their own care.
Parts Work for Parents of Teens.
A self-paced course and live workshop that walks you through the parts-work approach Daniel uses: reading the protective logic under your teen's hardest behavior, and meeting it without escalating. It is in the works now, with a first group opening soon.
The course is still in the works. In the meantime the same material runs as a live evening workshop, and Daniel will let you know the moment enrollment opens.
