Episode 60 | Understanding Your Tweens & Teens with Jax Anderson, LPC
from Psych Talk · host Dr. Jessica Rabon
In today's episode of Psych Talk I had the privilege of speaking with Jax Anderson, a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who works with tweens and teens, as well as their parents, helping parents better understand their tween or teen. Jax discusses the brain development of tweens and teens and how understanding such helps both parents and adolescents normalize and validate tweens' and teens' experience. We discuss the important of understanding and encouraging emotional intelligence and how doing so can promote intellect, as well as a positive relationship between parent and child. Jax discusses how she teaches her parents to treat their child like an "adult in training" and provides listeners with tangible skills and tips on what they can do to best support and understand the tweens and teens in their lives. Even if you are not a parent of a tween or teen, Jax provides knowledge and insights that can apply to anyone who parents, works with, or knows an adolescent.Connect with Jax:TikTok: psyko_therapyInstagram: thepsykotherapistWebsite: The Psyko Therapist - HomeFacebook: Moms Raising Tweens & Teens | FacebookWays to Work With Me:Mind Over MatterLGBTQ+ Affirming MasterclassBe a guest on my podcastResources:Value Aligned 2021 JournalAnti-Racism ResourcesLGBTQ+ Affirming ResourcesThe Helping Professional's Guide to Boundary SettingConnect with Me:Follow me on IG @jessicaleighphd.Follow me on TikTok @jessicaleighphdJoin my Facebook community: Grow Through What You Go ThroughSponsors & Collaborations:BetterHelpDiveThru WebsiteDiveThru AppIntro/Outro Music:Life of Riley by Kevin MacLeodMusic LicenseAwakening Together, Relaxing into Happiness with William Cooper, M.Th., LPCExperience Awakening....Relaxing into your Being and, therefore, Happiness.
