About this listen
In this inaugural episode, Dr. Annalise Caron and Dr. Suzanne Allen—both child and adolescent clinical psychologists—take a fresh look at adolescence. They challenge the cultural narrative that the teen years are inherently difficult and reframe it through a compassionate, developmentally informed lens. With personal anecdotes, clinical wisdom, and a touch of humor, the hosts set the tone for what’s to come: practical, science-backed parenting insights for raising tweens and teens.
In this episode, they will discuss:
- How fear or worry can lead parents to jump to unhelpful conclusions about their teens
- Why understanding adolescent development helps parents stay more regulated
- Viewing teenagers through a developmental lens to help support their growth
- How knowledge can reduce parenting burnout and lead to more grounded, intentional responses
- How to respond to our fears as parents with curiosity and fewer overreactions
