Show up as the parent your teen needs you to be

Raising teens is hard work, but it doesn’t have to feel confusing or depleting. Are you ready to reclaim your relationship with your teen, set limits with love, and parent from a place of strength and connection? Are you ready to move from surviving the adolescent years to thriving during this time of transition? Teen Savvy programs help parents achieve balance, self-assuredness, and connection so you can ROCK the most important job of your life.

Teen Savvy educational programs help teens feel competent, confident, & connected

Teen Savvy adolescent programs help teens identify and capitalize on their highest gifts, rise to their full potential, and step into a place of thriving. With an emphasis on positive group dynamics, I meet teens where they are and help participants move towards self actualization, all in an upbeat, low-pressure environment.

Teen Savvy’s MISSION

With humor, love, and authenticity, Teen Savvy Coaching takes the mystery out of raising and being a teen. I help confused, overwhelmed, invested parents reclaim their relationships with their children and feel confident in their ability to manage the curveballs of adolescence. I equip teens with the tools they need to flourish and become the best versions of themselves, all during a time of significant transition. Because the adolescent years can feel isolating, I emphasize positive relationships and community to support and celebrate teens and the adults who care for them.

An expert on Teen Development

Sam speaking with three teens

I am a transformative coach serving teens and parents of teens. A veteran educator and school counselor with over 25 years of experience, I am also a licensed mental health counselor with a specialty in working with adolescents and their parents. Just as important, I’m a parent of two teens myself. I’ve been in the trenches. And while my household has not been spared the ups and downs of adolescence, my training and background have helped me and my children successfully navigate the bumps. I’ve spent over a quarter century supporting teens and their families.

Let me use my expertise to help you and your teen today!
