AuthenticMe® Life Coaching for Teens

As a parent to five beautiful children, I only ever want what's best for my kids. That's why becoming a life coach for teens was a natural fit when I transitioned into becoming a coach. Our teenagers are surrounded by social pressures from school, friends, family, social media, sports, and the constant need to determine their "future". They don't have to go through this alone. By working with a life coach, I can support your teens in building their confidence and providing them with the tools they need to overcome any obstacle. 

Is your Teen looking to: 

• Build confidence and self-esteem? 
• Fit in at school? 
• Better their communication skills? 
• Understand and control their emotions? 
• Reduce stress and overwhelm with deciding a path for their future? 
• Remove the stress of social pressures to easily make better life choices?

Adolescence is a crucial, formative time, which only adds to the pressure your teens are most likely feeling. As a parent, we only want to give our teens the best shot at happiness and success, and navigating that path isn’t always as intuitive as a parent might wish.

Hiring a life coach for your teens can provide them with a safe and unbiased space to openly discuss their struggles, dreams, and any issues that may be stopping them from succeeding. All the while, my AuthenticMe® Coaching Program will offer them valuable tools and exercises so they can be confident in creating the life they want most.

The AuthenticMe® Teen Coaching Program Can Empower Your Child To Feel Secure And Accomplished

It’s quite normal, if not expected, for teenagers to become overwhelmed with school and life decisions. By extension, it’s common for parents to feel concerned or incapable in the face of potentially erratic teenage behavior. Often when parents try to guide or engage their teens, it can escalate tensions rather than abate them. Parents will typically see a need, but ultimately feel unsure of how best to help. The good news is, there are ways to better understand and connect with your teenagers. By working with a teen life coach, we can help them build confidence and communication so they have what they need to grow. 

Why invest in Life Coaching for Teens? 

Life coaching can provide effective ways for your teen to improve their self-esteem and help them manage their emotions. The environment I provide for teens during coaching is warm and non-judgmental—and, above all, flexible. We’ll do whatever works best for them, whatever makes them feel most comfortable. We can meet in their school, my office, over the phone (so they can be relaxing in their room), or anywhere else they would feel most at ease.

In every teen coaching session, we will tackle the issues of self-esteem by addressing emotions, mindset, behavior, and spirit. 

• For emotions, we may do an exercise called “happies and crappies” to help them open up and talk about their feelings. This allows your child the opportunity to release emotions and thoughts about what’s making them feel good lately and what is having a negative impact. 
• Similarly, for mindset, we will check in on their state of mind, and assess how they’re feeling, where their stress is, how their mood is, and what their energy level is like.
• We’ll also work to recognize different behavior patterns, break them down, and come up with the most effective ways to manage those stressors. 
• Finally, your child’s spirit will be addressed by allowing them some space to be quiet for a few moments to learn to connect with their intuition.

Together, these teen coaching practices will help your child recognize their strengths, values, and learn to own their identity with confidence. These are all crucial and powerful pieces to the puzzle of teen wellness.

The benefits of life coaching can be visible in every part of your child’s life. Academics can gradually improve as they learn to better manage their time and believe in their abilities. Relationships can heal and strengthen through their effective and succinct communication. They will learn how to build confidence and trust in themselves as they become more in tune with their mindset and behavior patterns.

With the help of a teen life coach, your child can find their unique voice and become empowered in ways that will carry them through the rest of their adult life. Through coaching, your teen can be visibly more confident, secure, and happy. 

In addition to my youth life coach certification, I have five children of my own. I have an idea of how much you care for your children and want them to be confident and successful in life.

Frequently Asked Questions...

I would like my child to see a life coach, but I don't know if they'd be interested. 

I encourage you to trust your instincts as a parent and talk with your child about this option. They may have reservations, but that can be indicative of the sphere of fear that they’ve been operating within, which is preventing them from reaching their full potential. If you can gently encourage them to try something outside their comfort zone, it will likely be a great benefit to them.

I'm the parent, shouldn't I be able to guide them on my own?

The issues that your child may be experiencing are incredibly common and are not a reflection on your parenting. As the proverb goes, “it takes a village,” and having a 3rd (impartial) party come in to offer different perspectives is often just what a child may need. Working with a professional will also take some of the strain off of your relationship so that you and your child can enjoy each other more.

This is a normal part of growing up, my child will toughen up and get through this.

Unmanaged emotions and stressors will only resurface later on in life. Giving your child the tools that they need now will not only help them navigate their teen years but can empower them to be productive and fulfilled adults.
