Welcome to this space dedicated to parents navigating the complexities of raising teenagers facing the challenges of depression. I am Kristina, a parent coach committed to providing guidance and support to parents like you who are on a journey to help their teens through difficult times.

As a parent coach, my passion for supporting families stems from my personal experience raising a teenage daughter who battled with depression. Witnessing her struggles ignited within me a deep reservoir of empathy, understanding, and a fierce determination to help her—and others like her—find their way through the darkness.

Throughout those trying times, I realized the crucial role that parents play in the mental health and well-being of their children. It was through this transformative experience that I found my purpose in empowering parents to navigate their own children's mental health challenges with compassion and strength.

Parenting a teenager grappling with depression can be an overwhelming and isolating experience. The journey is fraught with uncertainty, fear, and heartache. However, I'm here to walk alongside you, offering a beacon of hope and practical strategies to navigate this challenging terrain.

My mission is to equip you with the tools and insights needed to support your teen through their mental health struggles while also taking care of your own well-being. Together, we'll explore effective communication techniques, self-care practices, and resources that can foster resilience and healing within your family.


Through my work as a parent coach and my personal experiences, I've come to understand that there is light to be found even in the darkest of circumstances. By sharing my story and expertise, I aim to empower you to be a source of strength and stability for your teenager as they navigate their journey toward healing and recovery.

Remember, you are not alone in this journey. Together, we can navigate the challenges of parenting a teenager with depression, instilling hope, understanding, and unwavering support along the way.

Thank you for entrusting me with a part of your family's story. Let's embark on this journey together, one step at a time.
