Do you sometimes feel lost parenting your teenage child?

Sometimes, it's like herding cats - and sometimes, like herding tigers.

Teenagers don't get us, and vise versa, but there is hope.

My name is Michael Stevenson. I'm a clinical therapist, coach a specialist in teen behavior and education, and most importantly, a parent of two teens, and I want to help you.

This meetup is sponsored by the Hope Family Treatment Center, so it is absolutely FREE.

Come and learn specific tools that you can use to help your family, help your child, and help yourself cope with these challenging years.

Each meeting, we'll cover a different topic on managing behavior, mood, education and more.

This meetup is free for everyone, up to 25 people each meeting.

Special thanks to the Hope Family Treatment Center for the space and the opportunity to share.

    "Hello. I'm a single mom of a 12 yr old girl. I didn't expect teenage behavior, what people normally fear, would come so soon. I could use some support and would love to learn, meet and mingle with other parents and their teens."
