My teenager has moved back home with me full time

Before working with Mike in Present Solution for Parents, I felt really hopeless about my relationship with my teenager. The biggest challenge was navigating how to handle my son’s disrespect and refusal to communicate due to his father’s influence. After working with Mike, I learned how to stand up for myself, regulate difficult emotions, and most importantly, how to show up as a confident parent.

Now, my teenager has moved back home with me full time. He communicates respectfully and he often asks for my advice. The most valuable thing I gained was letting go of fear and trusting that I could be a better parent by working on myself first and then applying Mike’s lessons to my situation.

My highest recommendation, both professionally and as a mom

As a psychologist, it was difficult for me to admit to needing help with my parenting. I felt like a failure as a mom, and this made me doubt myself as a professional. My friends would tell me, “don’t let your kids talk to you like that,” but I didn’t know what to do. Mike’s program and coaching have helped guide and empower me to grow into the mom I want to be.

The program is very comprehensive, and Mike is an amazing coach. He helped me navigate challenging situations with my kids as well as a difficult coparenting relationship with my ex. In addition to learning about adolescence and parenting skills, Mike’s thorough and very supportive coaching helped me understand myself and change patterns. That aspect of his coaching has been the most valuable, as I develop my own voice and style as a mom.

I give Mike and his Present Solution for Parents coaching program my highest recommendation, both professionally and as a mom.

We found Mike at the right time

We adopted our three beautiful sons much later in life and didn’t know how difficult it was going to be to raise teens with the right values. We were losing our minds and our hope. Mike’s guidance is so personal, and he was so available to our needs we felt supported the entire time he coached us. We’re grateful that we have grown more connected and finally understand each other.

We felt lost before we met Mike

We have three kids who share time between our two families and the stress and constant moving kids around was getting to us. Plus, trying to understand our teen daughter as she started a new school was tough. Mike always listened and always knew exactly how to guide us in our relationship with our teens.

The Browns

We felt understood by Mike

We came to Mike with a lot of stress and feeling like we had failed our kids. We were in conflict almost every day, their grades were dropping, and the disrespect toward us was out of control. He cared for us and never judged us. Working with Mike and making the changes we talked about, we saw changes in our family that we wanted.

Stay calm and confident as a mom

What I learned from Mike really works and I’m proud of how I’m able to stay calm and confident as a mom.

I’ve been working with teenagers and their families since 2003: pastoring, teaching, and coaching, first inside churches and schools, and now with parents one family at a time.

Here’s what I believe. Almost all the time, what you’re seeing at home isn’t defiance. It’s development. It’s going badly, and it is not proof that you failed. That’s why I coach the parent first, because you lead your teenager best from trusted influence, not intimidation.

You don’t need your teenager’s permission to start.

Everything I teach is something you do. Nothing in it asks your teen to agree to anything, sit down for a conversation, or even know you’re watching.

Your first step back to peace at home.

I’m a coach, not a therapist or a psychiatrist, and coaching is not therapy or medical care. My client is the parent. If your teenager needs clinical care, that’s a clinician’s job and I’ll tell you so. If your teenager is in crisis, in the US call or text 988.
