Adolescence is a trying time for both teenagers and their families. The teenager’s constant attempts to exert independence are often met by parental and societal roadblocks. Therapy focuses on identifying the teen’s strengths, identifying roadblocks to determine if they are actually halting their growth. Parents are taught how to avoid nagging and/or using physical force and threats and use effective discipline. The result is a happier, peaceful coexistence among parents and teens.
