Lisa McNelley Therapy
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT #156096
Parenting can be incredibly challenging. The job of growing adults can be incredibly rewarding, as well as one of the most thankless and difficult. Often, these challenges emerge as our children reach their teens. What once was easy becomes challenging. Rules and roles begin to get challenged as teens test the limits and begin taking risks.
Maybe you have teens who are stressed out with staying on top of school, activities and friendships, while worrying about life after high school. Anxiety and depression are often key indicators that your teens are maxed out, but there's no clear way to help them. If you are at a loss or feeling overwhelmed as a parent, I can provide a safe space to talk about the challenges and offer support in reconnecting with your teens.

Parenting can be rewarding, but it can also feel overwhelming, exhausting, and full of self-doubt. Whether you're navigating behavioral challenges, co-parenting difficulties, family transitions, or the everyday stress of raising children, therapy can provide support and practical guidance. Together, we'll explore what's working, identify areas of struggle, and develop strategies to help you feel more confident, connected, and effective in your role as a parent while maintaining your own emotional well-being.
