🩺 ABOUT ME
Hello! I’m Dr. Michael, a board certified pediatrician helping parents of emotionally sensitive teens build connection and confidence through a shared language of intuitive science-backed frameworks.

▶️ ABOUT THIS VIDEO
When your teen says “I’m fine,” but you know they’re not, it can be hard to know what to do next. Do you lean in and talk—or give them space? In this video, I share a simple, low-pressure way to help teens communicate how they’re really feeling—using a small hand gesture instead of words. I’ll also explain why emotionally sensitive teens often shut down when asked to talk, and how understanding what’s happening underneath can help you stay connected without pushing.
