If you're experiencing resistance, distraction, defiance, or wondering if your adolescent is just a little bit lazy, I believe my conversation with behavioral pediatrician, Dr. Nerissa Bauer, will help!
Dr. Nerissa specializes in helping parents and kids understand their brains and behaviors through her course TEACH ME ADHD, her part-time practice, and as the host of the Let's Talk Kids Health LIVE show. She is also a spokesperson for the American Academy of Pediatrics. Like Elevated Adolescence, her resources and courses are designed to educate and empower parents AND children no matter where they are on their journey together.
Inside this episode we cover:
> how to uncover what might be beneath your kid's surface behavior
> how you can start to motivate your unmotivated adolescent
> what's happening in adolescence that can trigger anxiety and depression
> & how to release guilt and remain hopeful in the midst of these challenges
Be sure to listen to all the way to the end, and check out the free downloadable PDF resource we've created for this episode, called: "Is it ADHD?" in the show notes. You can also download it here at: www.elevatedadolescence.com/isitadhd
