THE PROBLEM
Parenting is all sunshine and rainbows….
…said no one ever.
Raising preteens can be a wild ride. Sometimes you're left scratching your head, wondering if you're doing it right. And let's face it,
emotions run high when you're dealing with mini-adults-in-training.
Sure, parenting is about laying down the law and giving guidance, but most days, it's an emotional rollercoaster.
"I'm drawing a total blank on how to connect with my tween on a deeper level!"
“It's so frustrating that my tween does not listen to what I say half the time.”
“It’s like hitting a wall everytime I try to open up. I wish there wasn't a gap”
“It's like we're speaking different languages! What happened?”
“I'm stressed AF trying to figure out what's going wrong and how to fix it.”
“I want to dive into their world and really understand, but I'm stuck on the sidelines, unsure of where to even begin!!”
It's normal to feel like you're drowning in frustration…
Seriously,it's part of the gig.
But here's the scoop – the antidote to all the chaos is simpler than you think.
All your negative emotions and feelings about connecting with your tween stem from two things:
Beliefs & Expectations
Listen, a BIIIG chunk of that stress and confusion we feel comes from trying to live up to these insane standards we set for ourselves…and guess what? A lot of those standards are about as realistic as finding a unicorn chilling in your backyard! (How cool would that be tho?!)
So, what if we flipped the script? What if we ditched those wacky unrealistic beliefs & expectations and replaced them with a healthy dose of knowledge and understanding?
Think about it – less stress, more clarity, and a whole lot of positive vibes! (Sounds like a dream, right?!)
IMAGINE
WRONG. It’s not just a distant dream, it can be your reality..

…Can I confess something?
Since 2014, I've been doing my thing over here at CrystalTDoesTherapy, and let me tell you, I've gathered some pretty sweet tricks up my sleeve when it comes to helping parents connect better with their tweens.
...But here's the kicker – all these awesome strategies? They've been chillin' in my noggin or scattered across different versions of my programs and courses.
& deep down, I've always felt like I wanted to make a bigger impact...

CRYSTAL T, LLMSW
Hey there! I'm Crystal, and I'm your go-to buddy on this wild journey called parenting (seriously, it's one heck of a ride!).
Let's rewind to my childhood – it was a bit of a rollercoaster, to say the least. But you know what? I'm all about flipping life's challenges into victories! Like any tween, I had my rebellious phase and did some serious soul-searching – who hasn't, right? But therapy? That's what really turned things around for me. Fast forward to today, and I've healed my trauma, leveled up my emotional intelligence, and built a life I absolutely adore.
After my own life-changing therapy journey, I knew I had to pay it forward. That's why I dove into studying Psychodynamic Therapy (which is just a fancy term for how our past shapes our present) and became a licensed therapist. So, trust me, my methods aren't just random guesses – they're backed by science and tried-and-tested in the real world.
But still, why should you trust me? Easy. For my hilarious jokes, and my cute dog, duh!
Kidding, kinda 😏
As you can tell though, I'm all about keeping it real.
With over 185 families thriving thanks to my method (The Triple C Method), I'm only just getting started. My goal? To make a ripple effect of positive connection that reaches far beyond individual families because when families thrive, so do communities.
When I'm not coaching, you'll find me hanging out with my Goldendoodle (he's seriously my favorite, but shh, don't tell my hubby 🤫), soaking up the sun at the lake, or casting a line into the nearest fishing spot with my hubby.
