Michael Y. Simon, LMFT is the author of
The Approximate Parent: Discovering the Strategies That Work with Your Teenager
. He is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in private practice in Oakland, California. Michael is a sought-after local and national speaker on the subjects of teens and families and has worked with thousands of children, youth and families since 1990. He served for many years as a high school counselor, ran or developed programs that directly served children from birth to 18 and taught psychology, philosophy and religious studies at several American universities.

Michael is also the founder of Practical Help for Parents —a support organization for parents, educators and mental health professionals who work daily in support of adolescents. Most importantly, he’s the proud parent of a sweet, kind, 26 year-old man who, as a teenager, couldn’t be bribed to write a paragraph, and as an adult, would like nothing more than to write for a living. How’s that for neural plasticity?
