When learning to play a sport or improve in math, we often hire coaches and tutors to assist our children, but when it comes to learning social and emotional life skills, we provide little to no outside support. Adolescence is one of the most challenging periods of life for both the teen and the parent. Teens need coaching and guidance in learning the skills and strategies to navigate adolescence and life. Teen life coaches are highly trained youth development practitioners who specialized in helping teens move from a place of confusion to a place of clarity.
