My teen just won’t talk to me!

How many times have you said that as a parent - especially if you have an anxious one?

When all you want to do is help, what do you do when your teen goes into silence, gives a shrug, insists they are fine - or tells you in no uncertain terms to GO AWAY?

And how do you stop feeling so helpless?!

With this episode I demystify WHY a teen may not want (or can’t) talk about their anxiety - and the steps you can take to turn this around.

You will learn:

• 8 reasons why your teen may not be opening up
• How to create a safe space for open communication
• Powerful strategies to build a stronger bond with your teen
• Actionable tips to foster authentic dialogue

Stop feeling helpless and start connecting with your teen again!

Tune in today!
