What do I do when my teen just won’t listen
Using stories as a Language to Speak to Your Teen
What do I do when my teen just won’t listen is a collection of therapeutic metaphors that I have used as a practicing psychologist for over ten years working with kids, teens, and parents. These metaphors help parents and teens communicate when they feel stuck. These metaphors are familiar, accessible, vivid, and funny, and make use of humor and pop culture to make them more accessible to teens. They captivate and inspire parents and teens to help them shift perspectives. They are followed by examples based on real clinical stories to further the ideas suggested by the metaphors. The book can be read cover to cover, or, when parents and teens feel stuck, they can refer back to the relevant metaphor to generate a new discussion. This book can be a valuable tool to help parents and teens shift perspective when they feel stuck and direct communication is breaking down.
