I'm Dr. Cam, The Teen Translator.

While teaching a college course on Adolescent Psychology, I was truly inspired by the parents in my class who shared how much their relationships with their teenagers had improved using the strategies I taught. That experience sparked my mission: to empower as many parents and caregivers as possible to connect with their teens.

As a single mom myself, I put these strategies to the test every day with my own teenager. So, I get it—I know what works, what’s practical, and how to make it all fit into a busy life.

Pull up a virtual armchair and let's navigate the exciting (and sometimes challenging) world of raising teens together!!

Adolescence is a whirlwind of change—which is why what worked yesterday might not work today. Communication may falter, arguments may flare up, and relationships may become strained.

But it doesn't have to be as tough as it seems. By getting to the root of your teen's behavior and truly understanding their needs, you can adjust your approach to foster a more peaceful, trusting, and respectful environment for everyone.

I like to see teenagers as butterflies—constantly evolving in intricate and beautiful ways. Just as a butterfly emerges from its cocoon with new strength and grace, with the right guidance and support, teens can emerge from this transformative stage as confident, remarkable adults.
