Is your Relationship with your Teen or Young Adult Tense and Stressful? How to Hit the Reset Button
Managing teens and young adults can be challenging, unpredictable, and isolating.
Tween, teens, and young adults can become difficult, emotional, and distant in an instant, and the connection and companionship you had when they were young is fleeting or gone completely.
Efforts to try and set limits, manage their behaviors, or handle conflict can escalate into hostility or coldness.
And things get more complicated in households where kids struggle with stress, moodiness, addictions, or mental health issues.
Parents are often left feeling worried, frustrated, discouraged, or defeated.
This series provides a way to get a fresh start.
Who is this for?
This 4-part live series is applicable to all kids, including tweens, teens, grown kids, introverts, neuro-spicy kids, and the ‘leave me alone’ kind.
The focus is on helping parents, step-parents, and family members, as well as practitioners working with parents.
Joining me for a session will be guest speaker Dr. George Pransky, Ph.D., a psychologist with 40+ years of clinical experience in teens, parenting, and family systems.

FAQs
I want help but my partner doesn’t. Do both people need to participate in one of your programs for in order for our relationship to change?
No, your partner does not need to participate in any of my programs. In fact about half of the people that attend my relationship programs either have partners that don’t participate, or they’re single. It may seem like a funny concept to attend a relationships program without a partner, but the fact is, it doesn’t actually matter given how relationships actually work.
The goal of these programs is to help you to show up to the relationship, and the tension and challenges it brings with less reactivity and overanalysis, and more clarity, grace, and presence. That has a profound and immediate impact on the relationship as it changes the level of communication, the chemistry, the connection, and the overall dynamic. It’s the best thing you can do for yourself, AND for the relationship.
I don’t have a partner, and I don't feel ready for a relationship yet. I'd like to be in a healthier place when I do find the right person so I don't repeat the same relationship patterns I've gone through in the past. Can your programs get me ‘relationship-ready?’
Yes. Many of the people in my relationship programs are either single and don’t necessarily want a relationship right now, are dating and looking to settle down, or are with someone but not sure if that’s ‘their person.’
My programs are designed to give you a solid foundation to build close and healthy relationships in the future. It does not mean you are committing to the person you’re with, or that you need to be in a relationship right now. When you’re ready, and you find someone you want to put your energy into, you’ll understand what it takes to stay out of your old habits, go through challenges without shutting down, and build a connection that’s real and gets better over time.
Feedback from previous events
"Erika Bugbee is the teen whisperer. She’s also the 'parents-of-teens' whisperer. Erika works with teens and their parents in ways that look like magic, but are deceptively simple and full of common sense. She talks about how understanding what a teen’s inner life is like–even just a little bit–can make a gigantic difference in the quality of your interactions."
