I teach and facilitate a number of workshops, as well as give presentations
on adolescence and my material. The only thing more interesting
than working with teens is teaching about them. Below are links
to pages explaining the workshops and presentations I do. Most of
my material is modular, so to speak, so that it can be mixed and matched,
or broken down into smaller or individual components. Also, most
material is appropriate for anyone, and I mean ANYONE, who works with
adolescents: Foster parents, group home or residential staff,
teachers, case or social workers, therapists, and of course, good old-fashioned
biological parents.

The Hero's Journey is a classic, archetypal
model for helping teens through adolescence and into manhood
or womanhood. Used across the globe and throughout millennia,
the Hero's Journey can be used to track individuals, or it can
be woven into treatment models.

At-Risk and High-Risk Youth
This highly creative workshop helps expand skills and approaches
to working with teens. Participants learn to make masks,
guided imagery, use labyrinths, storytelling, ritual and ceremony,

teen as a whole person: mind, body and spirit.
