Today’s teens deal with academic pressure, social conflict, navigating influence from peers, meeting expectations of parents, teachers, and coaches, complex social media stressors, all while developing the decision making part of their brains. These factors are made all the more complicated by the recent youth mental health crisis. Many parents feel helpless when their teen is experiencing mental health issues and struggle in connecting them with the appropriate care, finding many providers inept and inexperienced in working with adolescents.
