Topic: “Welcome to the Jungle – The Wild Ride that is Adolescence in 2023”
Speaker: Ryan Myers, LPC
Date: Thursday • June 15th • 6:30p

There is no denying that adolescence is a season of life that involves waves of change that tend to occur in relatively short periods of time. It is a season filled with feeling big feelings and asking big questions while trying on all sorts of things in an effort to learn who we are and how we fit into the world. Whether you are a parent that has questions or concerns regarding how best to love and support your kid OR you are simply a fellow traveler on this weird adventure that is life as a human, I will lead us in a conversation drawing from my years of mental healthcare experience working with young people in various settings.
