Palmer Skudneski, MFTC

Marriage and Family Therapist Candidate and Teen Life Coach

I was “that kid”. The one who broke rules for the fun of it and rebelled hard against my parents. After a big interruption in life, I made it my life’s work to help tweens and teens navigate their path through adolescence with success and better decisions. 

I have always known that one of my happy places was having meaningful conversations with people, listening to their stories and understanding more about their hopes and ambitions.

I love seeing people talk about their passions and what their ideal journey in life would be. I quickly realized that it brought me immense fulfillment and joy to help people take ownership of their journey in life, and make their hopes and goals a reality.

In my own life, I have had many seasons where I have felt aimless and confused on what direction I wanted to head in. There were many times where I was just trying to get through the next day, and didn’t care to think about the journey ahead. I felt hopeless and angry at the circumstances I was facing in life. I wondered how I would find meaning in these seasons. View Palmer’s teen coaching website.
