YOUR TEEN'S WORTH WAS NEVER UP FOR NEGOTIATION.

Not grades. Not the roster. Not good behavior. Not keeping everyone happy.

Coaching built on “enoughness” - the settled sense of worth that doesn't have to be earned.

 Wouldn’t it be great if your teen could…

Face a test or tryout without the spiral.
Hear a no without it turning into a war.
Put down the job of keeping everyone happy. Feel at home in who they are.

Does your teen or young adult…

  • Frequently feel anxious, insecure, and doubtful of themselves - hyperfocused on being accepted or liked?

  • Stress about their workload, their performance, and how they measure up?

  • Hold it together everywhere else, then fall apart or snap at you at home?

  • Need constant reassurance, no matter how well things are going?

Positively Healthy Coaching
has the answer

 

Most coaching starts with behavior. Ours starts underneath it, with the question driving the behavior: Am I enough?

 
 
Featured

MIND Catch the inner critic and answer it with something truer.

BODY Build the sleep, movement, and daily habits that hold everything else up.

EMOTION Regulate stress with practical tools that work before the test, the tryout, the hard conversation.

SUPPORT Know how and when to reach for people - teens regulate through connection first.

Your teen leaves coaching with tools they'll use for life - and with the question underneath everything settled enough that they need those tools less often. Hard moments still come. What changes is what they mean: a setback stings, then teaches, and their worth is never the thing on trial.

  • "Laura helped my daughter learn how to love herself from the inside"

    “My 13-year-old-daughter is a recovered perfectionist. We used to fight all the time because she needed things to be a certain way, and I'm the opposite in that I'm very laid back. We came to Laura when I felt things were getting serious with my daughter. Her body image was horrible, and I was worried about what would happen if she didn't get some outside help.

    Laura helped my daughter learn how to love herself from the inside and not base her value on her outward appearance. She is a strong and confident girl now, and I'm so proud of her hard work. My daughter knows what to do if she ever starts doubting herself again and can use what she learned in coaching for the rest of her life.”

    - Mom of 13-year-old

  • "My daughter got past the pain and feels confident in herself"

    “Laura helped my 14-year-old redefine herself and improved our relationship after not making the cheer team. Before we found Laura, we planned to enroll her in a private school so she could have another chance to be on a cheer team.

    My daughter learned that making the team doesn't define her worth in the world. She got past the pain and feels confident in herself and trying new things. She's happier, and our communication is so much better. I didn't realize I was inadvertently making things harder for her. I highly recommend working with Laura.”

    - Mom of 14-year-old

  • "She asks thought-provoking questions from angles you haven’t thought of before"

    “Laura is really empathetic and professional, she is full of passion to see her client achieve their goals. She is extremely observant and asks thought-provoking questions from angles you haven’t thought of before. It’s a great pleasure to work with her and have her by my side during this journey.

    She helps you to dig deep into what you want, what’s your motivation, what are your mental or mindset blocks and overcome them, as well as the actions you can take to achieve your goals. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to become more healthy in any way and live a healthy and happier life.”

  • "She was able to connect with our teenage daughter "

    I feel so grateful that we have found Coach Laura as she has been instrumental in helping to restore a level of peace and calmness in our home. In just a few months, Laura was able to connect with our teenage daughter to help her regain her self-confidence, improve family interactions, and develop time management skills that have benefited her both athletically and scholastically.

    I highly recommended Coach Laura to anybody who is dealing with 'anxie-teens' to help them discover a new level of self-understanding and forming new ways of communication with those who love them.

  • " I know growth comes from doing the hard stuff. "

    I learned to put myself outside my comfort zone because I know growth comes from doing the hard stuff. I have gained security and comfort in my skin and have better habits and stronger mental skills.

Work With Me

At Positively Healthy Coaching, I work with the strong students, the athletes, the teenagers who do everything right - and the ones who've stopped trying. They look nothing alike from the outside. Underneath, they're often carrying the same exhausting job: earning their place every single day. Some are still working at it. Some gave up on ever winning it. The question underneath is the same: am I enough?

Here's what's actually happening: your teen's sense of worth has become contingent. It rides on grades, rosters, likes, and other people's reactions, which means it has to be re-earned every morning. A teen in that position isn't unmotivated or dramatic. They're tired - and their behavior makes perfect sense once you see the question underneath it: am I enough?

My coaching is built on settling that question. I call it enoughness - a sense of worth that doesn't have to be earned - and it's the construct at the center of my doctoral research in developmental psychology.

Here's how I do it:

  1. Steady the body first. I start with practical, science-backed tools for regulating stress, because a nervous system in overdrive can't do deeper work. Relief comes early.

  2. Settle the worth question. Together we find the beliefs driving the pressure - then we work on them directly, so your teen's worth stops riding on the next result.

  3. Build who they are. With the foundation settling, we build identity on character strengths and purpose, so confidence comes from somewhere real and holds up when a result goes wrong.

Hard days will still come. What changes is what they mean. Give your teen a place where nobody is scoring them - and watch who shows up when the pressure lifts.
