Is Your Teen Athlete Secretly Struggling?
A Message from Melissa Osen
As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Mental Performance Coach with over 20 years of experience working with teen athletes and their families, I've identified five warning signs that your athlete is struggling with more than just 'normal teenage stuff.'
This isn't about mood swings or growing pains, it's about the mental and emotional blocks that can hold your teen back from reaching their full potential, both on and off the field.
Think of this guide as your first step in learning what your teen athlete really needs from you and how you can show up for them as their biggest support system, not just their biggest fan.
