You might have a vision for what your teenager or child needs in order to thrive. But you’re not the only adult in your kids’ life: there’s her teacher, another parent, or their youth leaders at church or a club. Licensed clinical therapist Jenny Howe specializes in helping parents collaborate with the school to figure out a plan that will work for everyone. 

“How can we reintroduce kids to being around other people after social distancing? My 3-year-old has intense stranger danger because she has not been around non-family members during a formative time of development.”

Podcast guest Catherine Johnson is a recently retired Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She spent over 40 years working with children and their families, with a special interest in early childhood mental health.
