Understanding Your Teen Series

An Educational Workshop for Parents of Teens

Presented By: Brooke Lewis, MA

Location: Denis Boyd & Associates, Coquitlam

Time: 7:30-9:00pm

Cost: Only $10/session

This series is geared to help parents understand current youth trends and youth issues. ‘My teenager has been taken over by aliens!’ is a common complaint from parents and an issue that Registered Clinical Counsellor, Brooke Lewis., M.A. has assisted many families with.

In 2008, Brooke joined the team at Denis Boyd & Associates and began working with youth aged 13 and up. From her experience in private practice, as well as working with teens as a counsellor at a local high school, Brooke quickly noticed some reoccurring themes and questions from parents which included the following: what exactly is teen anxiety? What do teens have to be depressed about? I think my child might have an eating disorder. Did I do something wrong as a parent for this to happen? What can I do to help my teen? How do I keep my teen safe online?

Brooke saw a need and wanted to offer parents some practical tips as well as identify potential signs of trouble in a group setting, and as a result, the Understanding Your Teen Series was born. Both parents and teachers alike have provided positive feedback about the sessions.
