The other day I asked my teen what kids are talking about these days, thinking they’d say prom, midterms, or spring break, but instead they said “🧊 killing people in the streets.”

Our teens are not immune to what’s happening, even if it doesn’t impact them directly. 💙

Here’s how you can help: listen first, validate their feelings, and offer grounding tools and routines to help them feel safe and supported.

Resist the urge to fix. It’s often the most validating thing you can do in the moment.

We take away their phones for “sleeping too late.”
We label them lazy when their nervous system is actually exhausted.

We make them push through, then feel helpless when they shut down.

- What if your teen’s sleep patterns are actually a clue to what their body needs?

Teens in survival mode don’t need more structure.
They need safety. Rest. Regulation.

And parents who understand how stress lives in the body.

This is exactly what we teach at Creative Healing-support without shame.

Want practical tools to parent with
confidence (not fear)?

It’s often in the urge of parents to jump in and fix your teen’s emotion. Of course it is… It’s hard for you to see your child struggling. But the most helpful thing that you can do is stay steady so that they can learn the skills to regulate.

The most helpful thing in the moment is often just slowing yourself down.

When your teen is emotional, your body wants to treat it like an emergency. Pause. Ask yourself: Is there intent, or is there pain? Most of the time it’s pain. Your job in this moment is not to assess the future—it’s to stabilize the present by staying calm.

Nice to meet you!

Creative Healing offers unique three-part treatment program designed specifically for teens that's not being offered anywhere else.

The Three Critical Components of Teen Success are:


  • Self-expression: This is how your teen learns to tune in, identify their feelings and warning signs and communicates those emotions to others.

  • Support: This is how your teen learns to identify a positive support system and find accountability among healthy peers and adults.
