What experts are saying about 'Ways to Help Your Lonely Teen': "Isolation and loneliness feed on each other and make everything worse, including life itself. The younger you are, the deeper the hurt. Fortunately human connection and healing are also a package deal and Gene Beresin has some wisdom for how parents, friends, teachers and others can help adolescents and young adults be together and not get stuck. We are surrounded by ways to be alone. Dr. Beresin gives us practical steps and advice about how we and our children can stay connected and thrive."
- Mark Vonnegut, MD, Pediatrician, Author of 'The Eden Express', 'Just Like Someone Without Mental Illness Only More So: A Memoir', and 'The Heart of Caring: A Life in Pediatrics' "This is the book for all those concerned for our lonely young people. Such an accessible, no-nonsense guide should be on every breakfast table, next to the coffee pot and pancakes. Inspired by hope and the belief in actions not just words, it packs a punch. After reading it, you will know how to make a difference, how to notice and tackle loneliness as early as possible. I can only imagine Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy will keep a copy handy."

How do you support a teen who feels alone? Teen loneliness can have a devastating impact on their physical and mental health.
Ways to Help Your Lonely Teen is a direct response to the U.S. Surgeon General's 2023 Advisory on loneliness (page 65), to help parents know how to combat loneliness in young people and foster well-being to prevent mental health problems down the road. Dr. Beresin elaborates on each Surgeon General recommendation for parents with actionable, practical advice to help families embrace these recommendations in everyday life.
Whether you need strategies to support an adolescent who is struggling, or want to help a younger child create healthy relationships early on, this guide is for you.
