Hi Parents!
This week, I had the pleasure of speaking with Katie K. May, a renowned teen therapist and an expert in DBT. Her work is transforming how teens manage their emotions and how parents can better support them.
In our conversation, Katie shares practical strategies to help your teen manage emotional overwhelm and break free from rigid thinking patterns. She also provides expert guidance on building emotional resilience, understanding DBT, and fostering a supportive home environment.
