Programs / Parents of teens
Stay close to a teenager who's pulling away.
Parents come to me asking how to get their teenager back in line. What's underneath is usually development more than defiance. I teach parents to move from control to influence, so you can stay an effective parent at exactly the point you can no longer control your child's inner world.
It's the same method I teach to professionals, written here for you and your own life. It's coaching and education, not a substitute for professional care.

The question underneath
The question you come in with, and the one worth asking instead.
Parenting Adolescents
“Why is my teenager doing this to me?”
“What is developmental here, and how do I move from control to influence?”
When Your Teen Pulls Away
“How do I get my child back in line?”
“How do I stay an effective parent when I cannot control my child's inner world?”
What’s inside
Part 1
Parenting Adolescents
A lot of what looks like defiance is a teenager growing up. You'll learn to tell what's developmental from what needs your attention, and to start moving from control toward influence.
Part 2
When Your Teen Pulls Away
When a teenager goes quiet or closes a door, it's hard not to take it personally. This part is about staying steady and present as a parent when you can't control what's going on inside your child.

What people say
“My daughter and I were barely speaking. Every conversation became a fight, and we were both getting to the point where cutting each other off felt easier than continuing to get hurt. Rabbi Dr. Weinberg helped me understand that being right was not the same thing as saving the relationship. Today my daughter is back in my life, we talk, we laugh, and we are rebuilding something I thought we had lost for good.”
