I’m Jane Kariuki, a Clinical Psychologist, wife, mother of three, and Christian.
If you’re here, chances are you’re seeking guidance on navigating the often challenging, yet rewarding, journey of raising a teenager. Let me share a bit about why this mission is so close to my heart.
My passion for working with teenagers began shortly after high school. Volunteering at a children’s home with
a high school, I had the privilege of interacting with preteens and teens both in and outside the classroom.
It was here that I discovered just how incredible, insightful, and full of potential teenagers are. If you’re a teen reading this, know that you are admired and valued.
Throughout my career, I’ve mentored teens and tweens, witnessing firsthand how often they are misunderstood and unfairly labeled as rebellious or problematic. This negative perception shapes not only how parents approach the teen years, but also how teens view themselves. It’s a narrative I’m determined to change.
Why ParenTeen Kenya?
ParenTeen Kenya was born out of a desire to shift this mindset. Our mission is to dispel the myths surrounding the teenage years and equip parents with the tools they need to foster positive, respectful relationships with their teens. Here, parents can learn how to approach this stage of life with empathy and understanding, turning potential conflicts into opportunities for growth.
But ParenTeen Kenya isn’t just for parents. It’s also a space for teens to explore who they are, learn about the issues they face—whether relational, psychological, mental, or spiritual—and find support as they go through this complex time in their lives.
