Hi, I'm Diane Aretz

Founder of Teen Life Skills

Ā 

Hi, Iā€™m Diane. Iā€™m a parent (to two amazing teens), educator, academic and executive functioning/academic coach with over a decade and half of experience working with and empowering young people.

Iā€™m also a former struggling teen who, through exhaustive research and extensive personal and professional practice, developed strategies to manage my own ADHD and executive dysfunction. I turned those strategies into a system to helpĀ hundreds of teenagers.

Teen Life Skills exists to help families help their young peopleā€“preteens through young adults. My approach is research-based and asset-focused, and my work affirms the young people that I work with, centers their humanity, their unique gifts, and empowers them and equips them with the skills to be able to lead healthy, in(ter)dependent lives of joy and purpose.
