What Is This About?
Parenting teens can be complicated and messy. This class will give you importan and practical tools, strategies and perspectives that will improve your effectiveness with your teen and create more harmony between the two of you.
The underlying approach will be based on collaboration and problem solving with your teen. You’ll learn how authentic connection, boundaries and expectations go together. Parents that get the most out of this class are ones who are willing to self-reflect, take responsibility for their role and provide compassion for themselves and others.
This is also about support. Parenting during adolescence can feel very lonely and isolating.
In this class you’ll see that while some of your specific struggles may be unique, you’re not alone in your frustrations, anger, sadness and disappointments. At the same time, you can expect to be reminded that you’re resilient, strong and likely doing better than you realize.
We’ll be focusing on strengths, positive skills and solutions that do not shame and blame.

This parenting thing is no joke, especially right now. Our kids often bring us so much meaning and joy. They can also bring us to our knees, curled up in tears, withdrawn and shut down, or so angry we end up harming the very people we strive so hard to protect.
I promise you you’re not alone. You’re a good parent or you wouldn’t care so much. Learning new skills, modifying your approach when necessary and adapting are the most important items in a parenting toolbox. Let’s learn and grow together. I hope to see you in class!
Testimonials
“Yshai’s parenting class was supportive and very informative. It helped me understand so much about my 13 year old and where he is in his development. I also learned what I can do to best support my child right now and how to problem solve struggles he or we might be having. I highly recommend this class to any parent who wants to learn more about parenting.”
Jacquelyn
“We have taught classes about parenting younger kids in the past but when our eldest started middle school, we quickly realized we were in new territory. Yshai has become our trusted go-to and has helped us begin to navigate parenting an adolescent. In this class, Yshai offered us concrete ways to work with our own reactions and anxieties and in turn, we are better able to understand, frame and help our kids’ growth during this new phase of life.”
Jane and Brian
“Great way to learn about parenting from an expert coach and your peer parents. Easy & engaging. The content and Yshai’s delivery of it is really enlightening, relevant, and actionable. You get to learn both parenting techniques and the fact that your challenges are normal and common. Hearing each week how your classmates are doing is moving and motivating. And it is quite freeing being able to share your own successes and failures in a non-judgmental, supportive environment.”
Brian and Suzanne
“Parenting in general, presents all kinds of opportunities and challenges. Parenting during Covid-19 even more so. Yshai’s class provided weekly respite where parents voices could be heard and our children’s needs could be considered. The material was spot on, and the conversations were thoughtful and enabled us to remember we’re all in this together, and it’s going to be ok.”
Belinda
“I would highly recommend this class! Parenting teens doesn’t have to be complicated. Yshai really helped break down the essential issues and challenges and then gave us a tool kit for ways to address them. Key ideas like “connection before correction” are simple to implement and help us work toward our goal of being the best parents we can be. The class had a nice blend of new material and parent-to-parent support discussion so we could see that we are all struggling with similar issues and feel encouraged and supported. I am very grateful we took this class.”
Weston
“I couldn’t recommend this parenting class more highly! The content is relevant for ALL parents raising teenagers and I walked away feeling inspired, supported and empowered with a new awareness and a much more positive approach to parenting my teen. Yshai’s class provided information that not only helped me with parenting my own teenager, but also helped me to become a better psychologist to teenagers and their parents. I am eternally grateful for all I learned!”
