CCC-SLP.⁠ ⁠ Mindy specializes in helping parents support the development of their teens.⁠ ⁠ "As an experienced pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist with over 20 years of experience treating children and caring for families, I am thrilled to announce that I am now certified as a Teen Behavior Specialist, offering one-on-one coaching for parents of teens.⁠ ⁠ As a child communication expert and mom to four teens of my own, I am dedicated to helping parents navigate the development of their teens.⁠ I support parents in maintaining connections and adapting parenting styles as their children grow.⁠ ⁠ I empower parents with the tools and confidence to build fulfilling relationships with their teens. I address real-life challenges with empathy and conscious parenting principles that promote harmony and understanding.⁠ ⁠ Are you concerned about your teen’s mental health and need guidance to best support them?⁠ ⁠ Do you want to do everything you can for your child to have the best foot forward in life?⁠ ⁠ Do your interactions with your teen leave you feeling unheard, angry, sad, overwhelmed or discouraged?⁠ ⁠ Are your attempts at communication ignored or refused by your teen?⁠ ⁠ Are you struggling to “reach” your teen?⁠ ⁠ I work with parents of teens by listening to their concerns and providing effective tools and guidance to help navigate pre-teens and teen parenting concerns. Parent coaching is a solution-focused approach where support is provided for parenting challenges.⁠ ⁠ Sessions are held virtually.
