Are you an educator or parent who is struggling to understand teenagers? As children move into adolescence, their brains are continuing to grow and change, which affects their thinking and behaviour. Understanding these changes can help you understand teenagers.
In this episode, I have the pleasure of chatting with Marie Vakakis, a highly skilled Accredited Mental Health Social Worker, Family Therapist, presenter, podcaster, and trainer.
