Teenagers and Divorce: The Hardcore Truth with Sarah Kuretzky Rossington

Send us a textWhen a family splits, teens often look “fine” on the surface—grades steady, activities unchanged—while carrying a storm of fear, anger, and confusion underneath. We sit down with mental health pro Sarah Kuretzky Rossington to unpack how divorce impacts identity formation, autonomy, and early relationships, and why older kids shouldn’t be left to figure it out alone.We get practical about support that actually works. Sarah explains why narrative therapy helps teens make sense of their story without shame, how a light Internal Family Systems framework validates conflicting emotions, and why DBT skills like distress tolerance, opposite action, and interpersonal effectiveness can calm reactivity in high-conflict homes. We also break down how to choose the right therapist for adolescents and college-age kids, the value of parent coaching, and how to run joint sessions that improve communication without turning your teen into a mediator.Social media takes center stage as we examine comparison spirals, image management, risky DMs, and algorithm-driven content that can fuel anxiety, disordered eating, and isolation. Schedule a consult with Sarah at https://www.thehardcoretherapist.com/Listen to Sarah's advice on Divorce De-Tox; Self Care Strategies on the Divorce Rich podcast by clicking here https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/divorce-detox-self-care-strategies-from-the-hardcore/id1735150222?i=1000663280799Center for Financial PlanningStriving to Improve Lives Through Financial Planning Done Right! https://www.centerfinplan.com/Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.
