How many fewer teens at risk would we have if those teens who are now struggling would’ve started out successful in school?
I don’t know the answer. What I do know though, is that we would have far less than what we have now.
When dealing with a struggling child or teen, making sure he/she feels successful in school and at home is essential.
Years ago, I would focus on working with the child as well as their parents.
But I changed that.
Today getting the child to be successful in school is a primary focus in everything I do.
I now work with a three-pronged approach. I work with the child on their struggles, the parents on how to interact with their child, and the school and tutors to create academic success.
This approach has been a critical reason for my success. I have also trained tutors in a unique approach that has been used successfully with children and teens across America.
All this is only because of Yaakov.
And I owe him a debt of gratitude.

This therapist is so on target with every one of his videos. Loving these. We need more therapists who work on the education end along with the child and parents. From experience, I know that focusing on either one of the three without the rest doesn’t come close to what could be!. No wonder R Wahl is so successful!
Thank you.
This therapist is zoned in and really gets it.
