Hello! This is my first time posting and I'm so excited to have found this community. My stepson is 16 and struggles to connect to his emotions. He's angry and is currently estranged from his biological mother (they would argue constantly about his interests and behavior) and is living full-time with us. His mother wants him to go to therapy, but therapy hasn't worked for him in the past. He refuses to engage with the therapist, doesn't want to or seek to make changes in himself or his behavior, and will pretty much just talk about mundane things in therapy. My question is, what other resources are available to help him engage with his emotions and work on his anger/frustration? Is there something other than therapy that you recommend? Thanks for your help and recommendations!
