Getting to the root

It’s human nature to hope the difficulties facing your student, troubled teen or young adult will go away, but they often don’t. Not only finding the root of the problem, but working on support strategies should be your top priority.

Some of the most common reasons parents seek our help are:

• Low grades
• Defiance
• Lack of motivation
• Depression/anxiety
• Peer relationships
• Family relationships
• Poor organizational skills
• Rule breaking
• Drug/alcohol issues
• Teens of divorced parents
• Co-parenting issues
• Teen identity crisis
• Low self esteem
• Stress

School administrators often refer parents to psychotherapists who can help in diagnosing a problem area and determining an action plan for a student. These administrators know the importance of using the right psychotherapist. One that offers individualized attention and has in-depth, first-hand knowledge of a variety of local and nationwide programs.
