When a sweet child suddenly turns into an unpredictable, moody tween or teen, adults are often left wondering what happened. Fagell will share strategies to help adults preserve a positive relationship with children. Using Fagell’s techniques, adults can help children emerge from middle school feeling good about the experience and ready for the demands of high school and life.
Fagell is a psychotherapist, school counselor, journalist, and author of Middle School Matters.
