Publisher's Synopsis
As a practicing Psychologist, with over 10 years of industry experience, author, speaker, researcher, educator and consultant with a special interest and experience in Teenagers, Parenting and Suicide, Davina has seen and heard just about everything when it comes to Teens: the good, the bad and the ugly. For years, Davina has listened to Teenagers tell her things they would not dream of telling their parents; all the while, supporting parents as they watch on helplessly, feeling fear, guilt and anger. In her first publication, Davina reveals what Teenagers have been divulging to her behind closed doors: drugs and alcohol, suicide, sex, friends and family and more. Most importantly, Davina explains why they choose to confide in her and not you, their parent and the most influential adult in their life. Most importantly, she reveals what you can do to change this. Parents, it's your time to feel empowered and skilled to support your Teenager to get through some of the most difficult years of their life. If you have ever felt disconnected from your Teenager; if you worry about how you and they will cope in these 'hormone' years; if you've ever felt scared that you will lose your relationship with your child; or if you are just plain curious to know what happens on the Psychologists' Couch, this is a must read!
