"My kiddo had a difficult time finding benefit from therapy (tried several therapists) so we decided to try Empowering Teens Coach and it made such a difference! There’s a noticeable difference in my kid’s independence, confidence, and handling the transition to young adulthood thanks to coaching with Dee. Dee is very professional and worked with all of us to help him develop his goals and keep him accountable all while empowering him to take the leading role in his own life." ~A.L.
Imagine your teen or young adult feeling good about their day and accomplishing the goals they set out to do. How would it feel to see them talking with ease among their peers or with people in the community because they worked through their fears of being judged? What would it be like to hear them say that they managed their emotions during a challenging situation and that they're proud of themself? What if they had the courage to try out for the team, go after the job they want, or set healthy relationship boundaries?
Teenagers are going through daily highs and lows of navigating life while dealing with the pressures of academics, family relationships, friendships, love interests, peer pressures, rapport with teachers, jobs, extra-curricular activities, and trying to plan their future successes.
Talk about overwhelming!
When things get too heavy in any one of those categories, life in the other areas can be challenging to keep balanced. That's why it can be helpful for adolescents to talk with someone who will listen, help them deal with their emotions, and co-develop action plans that will set their personal trajectory toward their goal in a way that feels good to them.
That's empowering!
In bi-weekly, 75 minute-long coaching sessions (virtual or in-person in the greater Vancouver, WA area), I help my clients evaluate the elements of their life. Where are they content? Where could things be better?
We flesh out their ideal future to build hope—what would it look and feel like?—then set small, self-directed goals to inch closer to that reality.
Along the way, we explore the elements that make the client who they are—their strengths, values and personality type—and turn their struggles and weaknesses into tools for building their ideal life.
Additionally, I offer mini-support calls of 20 minutes each on the off weeks to ensure your teen or young adult has the encouragement and accountability they need to be successful.
