A MESSAGE FROM Daniel
Teen years are already a trying time. Teenage emotions can be volatile and impact relationships. Supporting your teen through these challenges can be difficult and feel like uncharted waters. The good news is there are many ways parents and families can help their teens use skills to manage their emotions.
Hi, I’m Daniel Jones, a Social Worker at Manhattan Teen & Young Adult Psychology, and we want to help parents understand their teen better. As a parent, you can learn strategies to help support your teen so that they can navigate the complexities of their world and actualize their true potential.
The stress of parenting a teen who is struggling can leave parents with less emotional energy to problem-solve effectively.
By getting support as a parent – you will also be helping your teen to confidently make healthy decisions for themselves.
Getting started with counseling is easy.

So, if you’re ready to develop new skills and build a stronger relationship with your teen, don’t hesitate to schedule an appointment today. We’re here to help.
